Typical Questions Asked By Our Patients

Will The Adjustment Hurt?
Perhaps you are wondering "When the doctor finds a misalignment in my spine and removes it, will it hurt? We utilize a light force treatment method with no popping or cracking of the spine. There is no discomfort from a chiropractic adjustment given in this office and it is relaxing to most.

Can Chiropractic or Acupuncture Help Me?
We do not attempt to determine this until at least a preliminary examination or more often a complete examination has been obtained.

After that you will be informed whether it is felt you can be helped by a doctor of chiropractic. We have built a reputation on helping others and we will not accept your case unless there is a good chance of helping you.

How much will it cost?
No doubt you are also wondering what this is going to cost. This will vary depending on the severity of your condition and the type of care that is needed. Please feel free to make inquiries about fees before beginning treatment.

What will happen on my first visit?
Your doctor will take your medical history, which may include questions about physical activities, diet and posture. Feel free to ask your doctor any questions you may have about your condition. After the consultation you will receive a physical examination which includes testing procedures which utilize a system of body mechanics, neurological reflexes and orthopedic tests to check your overall spinal balance and help pinpoint the misalignments in your spinal column. After this examination, appropriate x-rays will be made. You should plan on a one to two hour first visit.

Will my insurance pay for services?
Chiropractic benefits are provided by health insurance policies of virtually every major insurance carrier, health maintenance organization and state workers compensation carriers. Every insurance carrier has a multitude of policies available. You should contact your insurance provider to determine if your policy covers chiropractic care. If you have insurance which covers chiropractic services, we will bill the company for you. You will be responsible for your deductible, co-payment and any services not covered by your insurance.
