  1. Do you take insurance?

We are in network with Blue Cross Blue Shield, however we accept and treat many patients with other insurances.  As a courtesy, we will verify your insurance for in network and out of network chiropractic coverage.  Please note that “VERIFICATION OF BENEFITS IS NOT A GUARANTEE OF COVERAGE OR PAYMENT. IT WILL BE BASED ON MEDICAL NECESSITY, CONTRACT EXCLUSION AND ELIGIBILITY AT THE TIME OF SERVICE.”  Ultimately, you are personally responsible for payment of all services rendered.

For those who do not have insurance or whose insurance is limited, we are part of a discount medical plan called ChiroHealthUSA (CHUSA). This program allows us to offer our services at a discounted rate to our patients.  We can go over it in more detail when you come in.

  1. When will I know the total Cost?

We cannot determine your actual cost until after a proper evaluation and the doctor completes a treatment plan. At the Report of Findings, we will be clear and upfront about the cost.  Our fees are very reasonable especially in comparison with the traditional medical costs for treatments, and we work with you to find the best path to pay for your treatments.

  1. If you don’t take my insurance, can I come to your office?

Yes.  Our fees and treatment plans are designed for people with and without insurance.

  1. How much are chiropractic adjustments?

The chiropractic adjustment is $110.00.  Soft tissue is $40 if the doctor deems it necessary.

  1. I’ve heard that once you go to a chiropractor you always have to go.

Many people choose to include regular chiropractic adjustments as part of living a healthy lifestyle.  After experiencing the benefits of chiropractic adjustments, many often desire to continue experiencing the benefits on an ongoing basis.  Some choose to come weekly where others choose once a month. Once you have met your wellness goal, it is your choice how often you wish to come.

  1. How often will I need to get an adjustment?

Frequency is determined by the condition of your spine and corresponding health issues, your goals and the recommendation of your doctor.  Often people will initially come for 3 treatments a week for several weeks, then reduce frequency when appropriate.  Ultimately, the doctor’s recommendations will reflect whatever will ensure you achieve the best results.  You will be able to discuss this specifically with the doctor at the appropriate time. 

  1. I am nervous about getting adjusted.

We completely understand.  Many of our patients felt this way initially but were able to overcome this apprehension.  First, please understand you will not be adjusted until the proper clinical evaluation and testing has been completed and you and the doctor have discussed your case and you decide to go ahead with the treatment.    Second, realize that the chiropractic adjustment is a specific scientific intervention provided by a licensed physician.  The adjustment has over a century of research confirming its safety and effectiveness. 

The adjustment is a gentle and specific alignment your spine.  There are several adjustment techniques we employ to ensure that we work successfully with all different body types.  We are confident you will have a positive experience.
