FAQ — Muscle Works Chiropractic in Coeur d'Alene
Common questions from Coeur d'Alene clients.
Most chiropractors focus primarily on spinal adjustments. At Muscle Works, we focus on the muscles that hold your spine in place. Using Muscle Therapy, Dr. Hirschi tests hundreds of muscles to identify which ones have shut down, then reactivates them so your body can hold its alignment on its own. This means longer-lasting results and fewer visits over time.
Your first visit includes a full movement pattern and muscle function evaluation. Dr. Hirschi will test hundreds of muscles to identify which ones have shut down and are causing your pain or dysfunction. Based on the findings, he’ll create a personalized treatment plan. Most first visits take about 60 minutes.
No. We use the Activator Method — a gentle, instrument-assisted adjustment technique that doesn’t involve twisting, popping, or cracking. It’s comfortable for patients of all ages, from infants to seniors. You may experience mild tenderness as dormant muscles reactivate, but this typically resolves within a day.
Most patients see significant improvement in 6–10 visits. Our goal is to get you better and graduate you from intensive care — not to keep you coming back indefinitely. After your initial treatment plan, many patients choose periodic maintenance visits (monthly or quarterly) to stay proactive, but it’s always your choice.
Yes. Dr. Hirschi is a VA-credentialed chiropractic provider. If you’re a veteran with a VA community care referral, your chiropractic care at Muscle Works is fully covered — no copay, no deductible, no out-of-pocket cost. Contact our VA liaison, Kelly Young, to get started.
