Question 1

Do I need a disc or nerve diagnosis to be seen at NERV Chiropractic?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. NERV Chiropractic treats the full spectrum of musculoskeletal pain — back, neck, shoulder, hip, knee, TMJ, prenatal, and chronic pain. If you're not getting better and want to understand why, that's enough of a reason to book your NERV Origin assessment.

Question 2

Is it safe to be treated at NERV Chiropractic if I have a herniated disc?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For disc herniation and nerve compression, NERV uses Cox flexion-distraction — an FDA-registered technology designed specifically for those conditions, which works by gently reducing intradiscal pressure rather than applying direct force to the affected level. Spinal adjustments are applied to surrounding structures where appropriate.

Question 3

What is Cox flexion-distraction chiropractic treatment?

Accepted Answer

Cox flexion-distraction is an FDA-registered chiropractic technique specifically designed to treat lumbar and cervical disc herniation, spinal stenosis, and nerve compression. Using a specialized table, the affected disc level is gently decompressed — reducing intradiscal pressure and nerve irritation over time without rotation or high-velocity force. NERV Chiropractic is one of very few clinics in Los Angeles utilizing Cox flexion-distraction as a core treatment tool.

Question 4

What makes NERV Chiropractic different from other chiropractors in Los Angeles?

Accepted Answer

NERV integrates soft tissue therapy, movement rehabilitation, and Cox flexion-distraction into a single treatment system — something most chiropractic offices in Los Angeles don't offer. Appointments are 30 or 60 minutes with no double-booking, and every treatment is adapted to how your body is responding that day.

Question 5

How many chiropractic visits will I need at NERV?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your condition and how long it's been present. Most cases see measurable improvement within a few visits. After your NERV Origin assessment, you'll receive a specific, realistic projection — not an open-ended commitment.

Question 6

Does NERV Chiropractic accept insurance?

Accepted Answer

NERV Chiropractic is currently out-of-network and does not bill insurance directly. FSA and HSA cards are accepted. Many patients find that the level of care and time per visit at NERV compares favorably to what in-network offices provide — often with fewer total visits needed.

Question 7

Where is NERV Chiropractic located in Los Angeles?

Accepted Answer

NERV Chiropractic is located at 5478 Wilshire Blvd, Unit 212, Los Angeles, CA 90036 — in the heart of the Miracle Mile, easily accessible from Mid-City, Koreatown, Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and the Fairfax District.

Question 8

Is there parking at NERV Chiropractic on Wilshire Blvd?

Accepted Answer

Yes. There is dedicated free parking behind the building on a first-come, first-served basis. Street parking is also available nearby — metered on Wilshire and free 2-hour parking on the surrounding side streets.
