When Back Pain Can't Wait

When your back goes out on a Tuesday morning, or neck pain makes it impossible to focus at work, the last thing you want to hear is "we can see you in two weeks." You need to be seen now.

For west side El Paso residents and patients coming over from Santa Teresa, finding a chiropractor who can actually fit you in on short notice is harder than it should be. Most clinics are booked solid. Others don't pick up the phone.

At Health First Chiropractic, we've built our scheduling around urgency. Same-day appointments are a priority, not an exception. Call ahead, let us know what's going on, and we'll do everything we can to get you in that day.

What Is Same-Day Chiropractic Care?

Chiropractic care works by addressing the root cause of your pain, not just the symptoms. Through spinal adjustments, soft tissue work, and targeted rehabilitation guidance, Dr. Mudd restores proper alignment and takes pressure off aggravated nerves and joints.

Whether you're dealing with acute pain from an injury or chronic discomfort that's been building for months, same-day chiropractic care can provide meaningful relief quickly, often within the first visit.

How Dr. Mudd Approaches Urgent Chiropractic Care

Dr. Mark Mudd is a certified sports chiropractic physician with over seven years of clinical experience, including advanced training at Logan University and a rotation at Jefferson Barracks VA Hospital in St. Louis. He brings that depth of expertise to every same-day assessment, giving you an honest picture of what's happening and a realistic plan to fix it.

At Health First Chiropractic, no two visits look the same. Dr. Mudd takes the time to evaluate your specific situation before treating it:

  • Thorough root-cause assessment, not a rushed adjustment
  • Personalized care plan based on your condition and goals
  • Transparent communication about your timeline and what to expect
