Frequently Asked Questions

What types of chiropractic services do you provide at Keystone Chiropractic in Springfield IL?

We provide Upper Cervical chiropractic care, short term and long term chiropractic care, nasal release technique, chiropractic care for kids, sports injury care, pregnancy chiropractic, and auto accident injury treatment. Every service is tailored to the individual, so your care plan is based on your exam findings and your specific needs.

What makes Upper Cervical Chiropractic different from standard chiropractic care?

Upper Cervical Chiropractic focuses on the top of the spine where the head and neck meet. Small misalignments in this area can create widespread issues throughout the body. The adjustments are gentle, precise, and customized using imaging and thermographic testing. Many patients who have not found lasting relief with traditional chiropractic care come to us because they want a more exact approach.

Can you help people who have chronic neck or back pain that keeps returning?

Yes. Many patients in Springfield seek us out for chronic neck pain or back pain that comes back repeatedly. When the upper cervical spine is not aligned properly, the rest of the spine often compensates. Correcting the top of the spine can reduce strain, restore balance, and help prevent the constant cycle of pain and flare ups.

Do you treat severe headaches, migraines, or neurological conditions?

Yes. Conditions such as migraines, headaches, vertigo, dizziness, Meniere’s disease, trigeminal neuralgia, seizures, and post concussion symptoms are some of the most common reasons patients come to us. The upper cervical area has a strong influence on the nervous system, making this approach especially helpful for neurological conditions.

Can upper cervical care help with TMJ issues or jaw pain?

Yes. The alignment of the upper cervical spine affects muscle tension, nerve function, and biomechanics throughout the head and jaw. Many patients with TMJ disorder or jaw pain find relief after their neck is stabilized and the surrounding muscles can relax and adapt normally.

Do you offer care for pregnant patients?

Yes. Pregnancy chiropractic is one of our specialties. Upper cervical adjustments are extremely gentle and safe during pregnancy. The goal is to support comfort, balance, posture, and nervous system function throughout each trimester. Many expectant mothers come to us for relief from back pain, hip pain, pelvic discomfort, and alignment issues caused by pregnancy.

Do you treat children and infants?

Yes. Chiropractic care for kids is gentle, safe, and tailored to the individual child. Many parents bring their children in for issues such as posture problems, headaches, torticollis, ear infections, sports injuries, and general wellness support. Children often respond quickly to upper cervical adjustments because their bodies adapt easily.

How do you treat patients with scoliosis or structural imbalances?

We use detailed imaging, postural analysis, and gentle upper cervical corrections to help improve alignment, reduce strain, and improve overall function. While scoliosis cannot always be reversed, stabilizing the upper cervical spine can help reduce pain, improve posture, and support movement.

Can chiropractic help after an auto accident or whiplash injury?

Yes. Whiplash and auto injuries often affect the upper cervical spine. We use imaging and thermography to determine the exact nature of the injury. Many patients begin to feel relief as alignment improves and nerve irritation decreases. We accept some personal injury cases depending on the type of injury and whether it is a good fit for our office.

Do you help patients with complex or long standing health issues?

Yes. We specialize in helping difficult cases and patients who have not found answers elsewhere. Many people come to us after seeing multiple chiropractors, neurologists, physical therapists, and medical providers. Our unique combination of precision imaging, gentle corrections, and detailed progress tracking often uncovers issues that were missed before.

Is your office a good choice if I live outside Springfield IL?

Yes. Many patients travel from Chatham, Rochester, Sherman, Riverton, Athens, New Berlin, Taylorville, Jacksonville, Lincoln, and across Central Illinois. People often come from outside Springfield because they are seeking a specialized approach that they cannot find in their hometown.

How do you determine the best care plan for each patient?

Your care plan is based on a detailed consultation, thermography, postural assessment, and precise imaging. Dr. Schurger determines whether you need short term care, long term stabilization, upper cervical work, nasal release technique, or a combination of services. Everything is customized to help you get the best possible results.

Trusted Springfield Chiropractor: What Our Patients Are Saying

Helpful. Truly helpful. Dr. Schurgar recognized my hip/back pain as something needing to be exercised. He recommended and demonstrated some exercises and advised a web search. After he realigned my neck and gave me a brief rest, my return to normalcy, (being pain free) began. As for friendliness, he and Jean are tops!

Dr. Schurger has changed my life! When we met a few years ago, I was dependent on forearm crutches or a walker to get around. However, the pain and fatigue kept me from getting out much at all. After starting treatments to correct my out-of-alignment vertebrae, I got my life back. I am now able to walk completely unaided by mobility aids, and even was able to renew my expired driving license. I will have to continue treatment for the rest of my life, but I cannot thank Dr. Schurger enough for giving me my life back!

I found Dr. Shurger when I had exhausted all other avenues and bought I was at a loss. I had broken my back a few years ago and was having severe pain almost daily with even little movement. After the first treatment, I knew I had found the key to my recovery and healing. I recommend his practice to absolutely everyone.

I am an eight-year extreme migraine sufferer and used medications and regular chiropractic care for the same amount of time. I have also worn orthotics for the last seven years, too. In two visits I was migraine and headache-free and out of my custom orthotics. I would go to the regular chiropractor when I had a headache and get mild relief but when I get an adjustment from Dr. SCHUGER it goes away. I also did physical therapy for my neck to no avail. This works and I started when he came highly recommended from three co-workers.
