Given that chiropractic is safer than aspirin and speeds up recovery time from injuries, has a stellar record in treating low back pain and headache, is often more effective than opiods in treating chronic pain, can treat colic, scoliosis, carpal tunnel syndrome, plantar fasciitis as well relieving anxiety and making pregnancy and delivery easier - why not use it?
Chiropractic is a natural healing art that works by reducing or eliminating interference in the nervous system to establish a clear connection between the brain and the body.
I individualize various traditional and light force methods to each person to gently remove nervous system interference, allowing the body to heal and stay well through natural processes.
What to Expect
(Sorry, but I do not "accept" or bill insurance)
Nobody gets “just a quick adjustment”!
Some times I work fast, sometimes I work slow. But I don’t work in a “half-fast” manner!
Initial visit: (This usually takes about an hour)
This will start with a consultation to determine your chiropractic needs and health history.
If referral for imaging is necessary I will refer you to a local imaging center. I will also be refer you if yours is not a chiropractic case or if another health care provider needs to be involved along with chiropractic. (e.g.: referral to a general practitioner for high blood pressure)
A physical exam
A report of findings telling you what I have found. After I have told you what I have found and explained my treatment you decide if you wish to continue.
A Chiropractic adjustment that day unless some finding during the consultation and exam shows something indicating an adjustment would be dangerous or that further study is necessary before proceeding.
Subsequent & Maintenance Visits: (This should take between 15 to 30 minutes)
A brief consultation
A brief chiropractic examination
Chiropractic adjustment of areas in need of adjustment.
Fee Structure
Initial Visit $75 (this includes the adjustment unless it is contraindicated)
If I have not seen a patient before, if a “non-maintenance” patient has a new problem or I just have not seen you within the last three years - You will be charged for an “Initial visit”.
Subsequent or maintenance visits according to the doctor's recommended schedule of treatment are $45.
Occasional ancillary treatment (e.g. taping, electrotherapy) $5 per application.
A subsequent visit ($45) is an appointment recommended by the doctor and is eligible for pre-payment discounts. ($5)
Proper chiropractic care requires a treatment plan that consists of scheduled visits designed to correct underlying problems (subsequent visits) In order to maintain optimal health I recommend (but don’t require) regular maintenance visits.
Missed or visits cancelled without at least 36 hours prior notice are subject to a $45 fee.
