Good to know
How long and how often
A session is short. The doctor proposes how long and how often after the exam; there is no set number.
What we do not promise
We do not promise results or that any symptom will go away. Every person responds differently.
When to see a doctor first
If you had a recent fall, a fever, or a new and severe pain, see your doctor first. The chiropractor may also ask you to.
How it is paid
Medicare covers only manual adjustment of the spine. Other services depend on your plan. We tell you the cost before we start.
