New Patients

It depends on your condition, how severe it is, and the kind of care plan you need — which is why we don't quote a number before an exam. After your consultation, we walk you through the recommended plan and the full cost before treatment begins, so there are no surprise bills. Scheduling a visit is the best way to get real numbers instead of a guess.

Many health plans include some chiropractic coverage, but benefits vary widely — deductibles, copays, and visit limits differ from plan to plan, and some plans pay little or nothing. We can help verify your benefits before you start care so you know what your plan pays and what you would owe. Our payment options page covers the ways we accept payment.

Chiropractic care is widely considered a safe, conservative option when provided by a licensed chiropractor. The most common side effect is mild soreness after an adjustment, which usually fades within a day or two. We review your health history and examine you before any treatment, and if your situation calls for a different kind of provider, we say so and refer you.

Most patients feel firm pressure rather than pain, and many describe feeling looser afterward. The popping sound is gas releasing from the fluid inside the joint — not bones cracking. If you're nervous or sore, tell us; gentle, low-force techniques can be used in place of traditional manual adjustments.

Every care plan is different. Some patients start with multiple visits a week while symptoms are acute, then taper off as they improve; others come in monthly to maintain progress. After your exam we recommend a schedule built around your condition and goals, and we reassess as you go — you're never locked into a plan that no longer fits.

Plan on roughly 15 to 30 minutes for your first visit, which includes a consultation and exam. Once your care plan is in place, follow-up visits usually run much shorter — often 5 to 10 minutes — because the evaluation work is already done. We work hard to keep wait times short and visits efficient.
