Does insurance cover chiropractic treatment?

Yes, most insurance plans cover chiropractic care. We accept all major insurance providers including Blue Cross, Aetna, Cigna, and United Healthcare. Our team will verify your coverage before treatment begins and provide a clear breakdown of any out-of-pocket costs. We also offer affordable payment plans for those without insurance coverage.

How long until I see results from treatment?

Many patients report feeling some relief after their very first adjustment. For acute conditions like recent injuries, significant improvement typically occurs within 2-3 weeks of consistent treatment. Chronic conditions that have developed over years may require 4-12 weeks of care to see substantial improvement. We track your progress at each visit using objective measurements to ensure you're improving as expected.

Is chiropractic care safe?

Chiropractic care is widely recognized as one of the safest non-invasive therapies available for treating neuromusculoskeletal complaints. The risk of serious adverse events is extremely rare—less than 1 in 1 million adjustments. Our chiropractors have completed over 4,000 hours of specialized training and use precise, gentle techniques tailored to each patient's needs and comfort level.

Chiropractic adjustments should not be painful. Most patients report feeling immediate relief after an adjustment. You might experience mild soreness afterward, similar to what you might feel after exercise, but this typically resolves within 24 hours. We offer multiple adjustment techniques, including very gentle approaches for patients who prefer them.

How many sessions will I need?

Your treatment plan is highly individualized based on your condition, its severity, and your health goals. Acute issues might require 6-12 visits over 4-6 weeks, while chronic conditions may benefit from 2-3 months of consistent care. We'll provide a clear treatment timeline during your initial consultation and regularly reassess your progress. Our goal is to get you feeling better as quickly as possible.

Do I need a referral from my doctor?

In most cases, you do not need a referral to see a chiropractor. Chiropractors are primary care providers for musculoskeletal conditions. However, some insurance plans may require a referral for coverage. If you're unsure, our staff can help verify your insurance requirements before your first visit.

In these sessions, you can expect to learn:

the early signs of your baby's readiness to feed
how often your breastfed baby should eat
how much your baby should eat at each feeding

how to know if your baby would benefit from a cranial and oral assessment to help improve latch and nursing
the basics of pumping
that's normal vs abnormal for breast tissue/nipple symptoms
how to make adjustments for comfortable positioning for both mom and baby to improve optimal latch for better milk transfer and less nipple pain
