What Is A Red Flag In Chiropractic?

In chiropractic, a “red flag” means there’s something more serious going on that needs further investigation before starting care. These might include unexplained weight loss, numbness in the groin area, loss of bladder control, or unrelenting night pain. If any of these signs are present, we’ll refer you for imaging or to a medical specialist right away. That’s part of responsible, ethical care. Chiropractic is safe when practiced with the right judgment. We always put your safety first, our job is to help you heal, not take unnecessary risks.
