Can I see a chiropractor while I’m receiving workers’ comp from my employer?
Most likely, yes. In the state of Pennsylvania, worker’s comp insurance plans do provide coverage for work-related injuries, but you’ll need to talk to your employer to understand the specifics of your plan.

With that information, he writes a custom treatment plan that outlines the number of recommended visits to help you feel good again.
