| How much will my chiropractic care cost? |
| Your health investment is dependent on many factors.
During an initial consultation, Dr. Bill or Dr. Adam
will assess your condition and see if we can help you.
In addition, he will explain what testing is required
to evaluate your case. This exam may include orthopedic,
neurologic, range of motion tests, and radiographic images.
We will be happy to share with you your anticipated health
investment before any charges are incurred. |

| How long
until I feel better? |
| Chiropractic care has helped millions of people get
well and stay well. We have chosen state of the art techniques
to maximize results as quickly as possible. Typically,
people will recognize improvements during the first couple
weeks of their care. Those with more chronic conditions
may take longer. Some feel relief after the first treatment. |

|
| I’ve
heard that chiropractors make you go for the rest of
your life. Is this true? |
| This is definately not true. Many patients who chose
chiropractic care for a lifetime are doing so because
they have a
wellness orientation and want to live their life to its
fullest potential. If that is not what you are looking
for, we will respect and honor your wishes. Your health
always begins and ends with you. |

| Do adjustments
hurt? |
| We utilize the Atlas Orthogonal Technique and the Activator
Methods Techique because of how gentle they are. Many
patients comment about how much this pleases them. The
precision and speed of the instruments has taken chiropractic
to a higher level of patient satisfaction. |

|
| Can I have
chiropractic care even if I’ve had back surgery? |
| Yes. In fact, it is often highly recommended. When
areas of the spine are fused together or even removed,
it limits the normal movement in that area. Vertebrae
above and below the surgical site must work harder to
take up the slack. That’s where chiropractic comes
in. The compensating areas are treated and monitored
to keep them working as smoothly as possible. |

|
| What is wellness
chiropractic care? |
| Wellness care is designed for individuals who want
to take control of their health. Instead of defining
health based upon pain and symptoms, a wellness perspective
recognizes that health is about optimal function. Just
like choosing to exercise regularly, eat nutritious food,
and get enough rest and sleep, periodic wellness visits
help the well stay well. |

|
| How does
chiropractic work? |
| Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that the
nervous system (brain and spinal cord) is the master
coordinator of all bodily functions. Your nervous system
is protected by the skull and 24 moveable bones of the
spine. Abnormal position of spinal bones results in nervous
system dysfunction, spinal decay and ill health. The
chiropractic approach to better health is to detect,
reduce and help prevent nervous system dysfunction. |

|
| Will my bones “be
cracked?” |
| No. Our adjusting techniques do not create any popping
sounds in the joints of the spine. |

|
| Do you take
my insurance? |
| Due to the number of insurance companies and number
of plans within each company, we ask that you bring a
copy of your insurance card with you so that we can work
with you in determining your benefits. |

|
| Why do children
and infants get chiropractic care? |
| Just like adults, children and newborns may experience
spinal trauma. Many parents have their young ones evaluated
and treated by a chiropractor; some do so purely for
wellness and prevention. |
