FAQs

I am in-network with Medicare, Medicaid, Priority Health, BCBSM, and Aetna. I am awaiting my contract effective dates from First Health, so we can do courtesy billing for that in the meantime, which means you are likely to be reimbursed by your insurance. I can take HSA and FSA cards to cover your visits. If I am not in network with your insurance, please ask for a superbill for you submit to your insurance to be re-imbursed.

No, you do not need a referral to see a chiropractor unless your insurance dictates you get a referral. We are trained to be portal-of-entry providers to diagnose a variety of conditions.

After we get to know you from your first visit, appointments will run quicker with the adjustment and make use of soft tissue manual therapies to help your body’s capacity to heal itself.

There is this mindset that once you start going to a chiropractor, you go forever. I cannot physically force someone to continue with appointments forever. People choose to continue coming in because they recognize the value.

Think about it this way: When will you no longer need another dentist appointment? When will you have to stop brushing your teeth? Why do you think your spine is any different? Forces are being placed on all the joints in your spine at all times. Then all the damage placed on your body with your daily activities add up. We work hard to get you feeling good, so let’s keep it that way!

Whether you are on an active treatment plan or have converted to wellness care, getting adjusted when you are feeling good is the best time to come in. Our current healthcare model is sickness care where we wait for something to happen — like a wheel falling off — before we do something about it; rather than preventing that to occur in the first place. Additionally, our nervous system allocates 10%, if that, of power to sensory. So you won’t know there’s a problem before your body raises the alarm with symptoms.

If you plan on going to the gym on the same day as a chiropractic visit, try your best to plan on getting adjusted first. I understand life happens, so if it doesn’t work out that way, it isn’t the end of the world. But know this: what we do in the office is correct biomechanical errors from poor movement patterns that ultimately make us prone to injury. That way you reinforce proper neurological patterns and move better when you’re at the gym. Yes, you want to train your muscles for stability and growth, but what controls those functions? Your nervous system!
