Chiropractic is one of the most amazing healthcare professions, but very few people understand what it's all about. This article is here to help you gain a basic understanding of how our Burke chiropractors can help you and your family. Chiropractic care is the practice of using spinal alignment to alleviate a wide variety of physical ailments, including muscle strain, neck pain, chronic back pain, and more. This is accomplished by adjusting the position of the spinal column to its proper shape, providing a non-invasive solution for pain relief.
Welcome to Movement Chiropractic, the practice of Dr. James Go, serving Fairfax, Burke, and the accompanying Northern Virginia area.

Do you have back pain in Burke? Whether it is your upper, middle, or lower back, it is likely that you will experience some form of back pain at some point in your life. In fact, it is estimated that nearly 32 million Americans are experiencing back pain at this moment and that approximately 80% of the population will experience some form of back pain in their lifetime.
Many people have questions about lower back pain and sciatica for a chiropractor in Burke VA. A true sciatica is caused by the piriformis muscle in the buttocks placing pressure on the sciatic nerve traveling down the back of the leg. This condition is very common during pregnancy due to the anterior tilt in the pelvis to accommodate a growing baby.

I went here twice, I truly enjoyed and appreciated what Dr. Go did for me but I had to stop due to my back pain getting worse because of my nerves and my orthopedist said I have to stop chiropractic treatment and start physical therapy. But the way this place bills is a rip off and fraud. When I first called to schedule an appointment I was told by one of the receptionists that works there that my insurance wasn't accepted.

I thought fine I don't mind out of pocket for the first session to see how the place is. Once I arrived there, another receptionist asked for my insurance to double check if they do accept it, and lo and behold they said they do which I found odd as the first one did the same thing and said they didn't accept it which already gave me a feeling that the place was disorganized with billing, but I let it slip through my mind as I had chronic back pain and needed to see if chiropractic would help.

For the first session I paid $135.00 which I thought excessive especially as they said they accepted my insurance but was told that it was my first session and I had x-rays, fair enough I said. Second session was $35.00 and I asked the receptionist if that was all I needed to pay for first and second session to be sure I didn't miss anything and she says YES, that was ALL I needed to pay.

Almost seven weeks later I open my mail box and get bogus charges of $50.00+ What?!?! Fraud. Especially considering that I would only get 5-10 minutes with the chiropractor and only do 10-15 min of streching exercises myself. I can't respect a place that is shady with billing. In my almost 5 years of being in America I have never been to place where you co-pay and ask if that's all and was told that is all and then receive extra bogus charges.

In my experience, I have either co-payed at reception and received no additional charges, or didn't pay anything at reception and was told I would be billed whatever my insurance takes out. To be told one thing and then given another is not only ridiculous, but, disrespectful.

Dr. Go is a fantastic chiropractor/healer. His soft adjustments and unique hands on technique is something I've never experienced with other chiropractors. He uses a hands-on craniosacral type of therapy paired with adjustments of the fontanel plates. He is kind, understanding and takes the time needed for each patient. I was having issues with vertigo, migraines and a compressed nerve in my foot. Within the first month, my vertigo was gone, my headaches were fewer and the compressed nerve in my foot is feeling much better. I highly recommend Dr. Go!

Dr. James stands out from the typical chiropractor you might visit, your initial visit he will take the time to ask about your concerns, problems and pain areas. He will then take an X-Ray of your neck & spine explain the misalignment and show you what a healthy spine/neck should look like. Dr. James will then create a plan to get you corrected. Above all this, Dr. James works with you.

I am often unable to make regular scheduled appointment, but Dr. James still works with me and allows me to come in short notice early Saturday mornings. Thank you Dr. James for being so kind, friendly and generous with your time.

I found his office by chance and I’m more than ecstatic! He was so kind and explains everything in great detail. He makes you feel so comfortable and after one visit, I was breathing better and feeling better overall than I have in years. His receptionist was amazing too! I seriously can’t recommend this place enough!

Ok. It all started when I was 10 years old. You know you learn how to ride a bike and then after time after the bike breaks you learn how to fix it and after again after that time you get too confident on how to fix it. Which in my case was I thought I could reinstall the bike chain back on while still riding my bike. Welllll I was wrong. I thought I destroyed all feeling in my right hand. 30 + years and it's been a great party trick.

So the past 2 years I all of a sudden starting do deal with a LEFT shoulder problem. I have been with 3 different chiropractors. Now this was a pain that would almost make me drop my new born "At the time", like a nerve shooting pain. Again left shoulder. I thought I would have to live with this my entire life and chalk it up, rub some dirt on it, and deal with it.

Then my wife said give this guy a shot, he's helped me. So I did! Not only was I able to FULL function of my left shoulder, without paint and or chronic treatments. Without knowing fixing my left shoulder it took away my party trick, of my right hand. Yes I now have feeling in my right hand again. Thank you you! Oh and I read the bad reviews: They are based on there own insurance companies rules. Lol

I was 41 weeks pregnant when I found out that baby #2 was still facing the wrong direction (OP). I knew it was late in the game but having had a very painful back labor with baby #1, I was desperate. With an inkling my pelvis might be shaped wrong or something, I came to Dr. Go and he was just amazing. He identified my issues quickly and tackled them effectively.

My leg grew out a couple inches and I could feel my gait had improved. (Also, I loved his special equipment for pregnant women. So comfy!) All to say. I went into labor the next day! Labor progressed well naturally and baby came out facing the right direction! So thankful for Dr. Go. I will definitely be returning (if there's a baby #3) for the full Webster technique!

Dr. Go is a true professional with an effective treatment program tailored to the needs of each patient. My neck pain has subsided greatly since I began seeing him. He is very friendly and gregarious. The staff is great as well.

Dr. Go is great. He and his staff are very friendly. I went in for lower back discomfort. He took xrays, showed them to me, and walked me through how to interpret them. Within a couple visits, I was feeling much better. He also didn't pull the usual chiropractic gimmick of telling me I need to keep coming back. I'm fact, after just a couple visits, he recognized I was feeling better and said I don't have to come back unless I feel the need. While I'm still a new customer, so far I'm very impressed and glad I switched from my last chiropractor.

Dr. Go is my favorite medical professional and by far the best chiropractor Ive ever seen. His office is very nice, his staff is welcoming and efficient and his location is super convenient. I cannot say enough great things about Dr. Go's care. He has a very thorough and innovative approach and I always leave his office feeling great. Dr. Go always has a smile on his face and listens to and addresses any concerns or needs I have and I never feel rushed out. I look forward to my visits because I know Im being well taken care of.

I have been coming to Dr. Go for almost 2 years now. My back and neck pain is gone and if I am in need of an adjustment, he can fit me in with little notice! Friendly faces and a clean office is another reason as to why I will always recommend Movement Chiropractor. My pain has decreased and my range of motion has increased! Love this place. Thanks Dr. Go!

Dr. Go is a skilled And caring doctor. I have been working with him for over a year. He discovered my scoliosis and works to relieve my spinal compression. Each time I see him I feel relief and I also feel like I'm seeing an old friend. He is compassionate, is very generous with his time, his office is spotlessly clean and he is the only chiropractor I will ever need. I have a going to chiropractors Since I was a teenager and have found some to be better than others and Dr. Go is the best; hands down.

I've been going to Dr. Go for almost a year now. The front office staff and Dr. Go are friendly and always welcoming. He's patient with all of my questions and takes the time to make sure he's addressing any of my concerns. Their scheduling is efficient and the most I've had to wait was 5 minutes, but most times I'm the only patient in the office.

Location is incredibly convenient (next to University Mall). Since I found out I was pregnant this year, Dr. Go has helped ease my transition throughout the entire 9 months. I plan to continue my treatment after the baby's born and beyond.

I had been seeing doctors in other practices for my back and hip pain for about a year with no progress. I was recommended to Dr. Go's office by a friend and made an initial appointment. In that one appointment I could already tell Dr. Go was motivated to help me achieve my goals of having an active lifestyle and being pain free. I am tremendously grateful for his expertise and caring nature.

I have been pain free for months now and continue to actively exercise as I did before having pain. I highly recommend Dr. Go and his practice! His office staff is also incredible!

Dr. Go is awesome. I have been going to him for over five years. I now take my daughter there, as well. Dr. Go takes the time to explain your pain and then has the ability to make it better. Chiropractic care is not a one time fix; I regularly go to Movement Chiropractic as it has changed my ability to continue to do all the things I want in life.

Dr. Go discovered a serious back issue that the back surgeon and 3 other are chiropractors missed. I am feeling better under his care, though the lack of diagnosis has caused irreparable harm. He has a great bedside manner which makes his patients feel very comfortable. I wish I had found his practice sooner. Do yourself a favor and dump your old chiropractor and switch to Dr. Go at Movement Chiropractor.

James Go is by far the best chiropractor I have ever been to, and I have been to several different people off and on for the past decade. Dr. Go identified the complex underlying issues that were hampering my progress and I've have seen significant improvement in my posture and reduction of pain in the few months that I have seen him. He is a great listener and answers all of your questions. I highly recommend him!

I practice Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, which knocks my vertebrae out of alignment more often than most people experience. This kind of procedure requires great trust, and I have found that Dr. James Go is the Chiropractor that I hoped to find. He has brought a refreshing level of care and precision in all my visits (roughly 8-10, for the many instances I have knocked a vertebrae or rib out of place).

He is a very good communicator and soundly applies just the proper amount of pressure for the readjustments, even spotting the minor ones (for which you can hear a fainter pop during the adjustment). He covers the full spectrum of his care, for your spine, bone, and muscle, complete with guidance for facilitating the process of recovery. He is also a really nice person with a high level of integrity and no business gimmicks, just honestly returns your back into alignment and relaxes/stretches your muscles in a most direct, practical, and efficient manner. I'm glad I have someone to go to that watches over the many things that can and do go off with my back, hip, and neck, and keeps me in good shape so that I can resume doing the activities I love.

I have suffered with neck and shoulder pain since I was in Middle School and finding Dr. Go was like beacon of hope that my neck could be corrected! I walked into Dr. Go's office and was met with a smile by the Doctor himself and an explanation of what was actually going on in my neck and back. I have been coming to the office for almost a year and have never felt better! The office has a lovely atmosphere as well; it's calm and inviting. I highly recommend visiting Dr. Go for chiropractic care.
