What this pillar covers
Chiropractic care at ChiroMed is hands-on treatment of the spine and the joints around it, aimed at the mechanical fault causing your symptoms rather than the ache it produces. Dr. Justin Bergin, DC examines you, images where imaging changes the plan, and tells you what he found before any adjusting begins. Three services sit in this line, and all three run at both offices.
Dr. Justin Bergin, DC performs every examination personally, 22 years into practice, at Lakeland and at Lady Lake for the Villages market.
Chiropractic Care
The adjustment is the foundation of everything else here. Dr. Bergin treats restricted and misaligned spinal joints that interfere with the nervous system, in patients from pediatric through geriatric, choosing the technique for the person on the table rather than running one protocol on everybody. Manual adjusting, instrument-assisted work and drop-table technique are all in the toolkit. Read about spinal adjustments and the techniques behind them.
Pregnancy Chiropractic
Pregnancy changes the load on the pelvis and the lower back faster than the body adapts, and the usual answers are rest and paracetamol. Prenatal adjusting uses positioning and technique modified for a pregnant patient, with the aim of keeping the pelvis moving and the low back tolerable through the third trimester and afterwards. See what prenatal and postpartum adjusting involves.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser, also called low-level laser therapy, is a light-based treatment applied to soft tissue that has stopped settling on its own. It is painless, it takes minutes, and it is usually layered onto an adjusting plan rather than sold as a standalone course. It is used here for stubborn tendon and nerve-related complaints in the wrist, foot and knee. Read how low-level laser sessions for stubborn soft tissue fit a plan.

Where this sits
This pillar is one of six at ChiroMed. Start at the ChiroMed practice overview to see how they fit together.
Independent background: Mayo Clinic describes what happens during a chiropractic adjustment.
“I have had sich a great experience seeing Dr. Bergin. When other offices have told me I just had muscle damage or the only thing they could do for me was give shots, he said he had others ways to manage my pain and numbness, along with improving mobility. And he was right! I feel so much better!”
“I have had pain in my right upper back quadrant by my shoulder blade for at least a year now and the doctors have been unsuccessful in making the pain go away. I came to Dr. Bergin looking for some help. Within 3 to 4 weeks. My pain in that area is completely gone.”
“Dr. Bergin is phenomenal. Chronic lower back issues led a different doctor to mention back surgery to me. That was not an option I wanted to entertain. After a consult with Dr. B, he was confident that he could help resolve my back issues. I’ve been seeing him weekly to resolve the issue, and I am so pleased with the results so far! More mobility, less pain, and a great customer experience.”
“I bless the day that Dr. Bergin started working on me. I have had long standing pain for so long. After just a few visits my pain left and I feel so good. He is very patient oriented and caring. I regard him highly.”
“Dr. Bergin was instrumental in relieving my back pain which I had for many years. The techniques he used on relieving my back pain were impressive. I been going to chiropractors for years and Dr. Bergin is the best.”

What is a red flag in chiropractic?
A red flag is a sign that your problem is not mechanical and belongs with another provider first. Unexplained weight loss, fever with back pain, loss of bladder or bowel control, progressive weakness in a limb, pain that is worse lying down, or a history of cancer are all examples. Dr. Bergin screens for them at the examination, and if one shows up he tells you and refers rather than treats.
the clinic teamWhat is the average cost of a chiropractic adjustment in Florida?
Published averages move around a lot, because they mix cash-pay visits, insurance copays and multi-service appointments. The useful answer is what applies to you. Chiropractic care here bills insurance, and our team verifies your benefits before your first visit so you know your copay in advance. The new patient consultation, exam, X-rays if needed and report of findings is $47.
the clinic teamCan a chiropractor fix a pinched nerve?
Often, yes, when the nerve is being irritated by a mechanical problem: a restricted joint, a disc pressing on the nerve root, or soft tissue tightening around it. Treatment addresses the structure causing the compression rather than numbing the symptom. Where the nerve root is badly compressed, decompression or a referral may be the better path, and Dr. Bergin will say so after reading your imaging.
the clinic teamWhy do doctors discourage chiropractors?
Some do, usually because of variation in practice and a thin evidence base for claims outside the musculoskeletal system. That criticism is fair where it lands. Our answer is to stay inside what chiropractic is good at, screen for red flags, image before adjusting when it changes the plan, and refer out when the problem is not mechanical. We also put the reasoning in writing so your physician can read it.
the clinic teamDo I need a referral to see a chiropractor in Florida?
No. Florida allows direct access to a chiropractic physician, so you can book an evaluation yourself at either office. Some insurance plans still require a referral for benefits to apply, which is one of the things our team checks when it verifies your coverage before your first visit.
