How many visits will it take to see results?

The number of recommended visits may vary from person to person. Dr. Maddie will evaluate the complexity of your situation depending on whether it’s a newer or older issue, how severe it is, related lifestyle factors and your overall level of health. Typically people feel improvement by around 6 sessions, although some notice positive changes after their very first adjustment!

Dr. Maddie may offer at-home recommendations that will speed up the process and create more lasting changes. After completing a course of treatment, continual sessions help prolong the results and prevent future situations from occurring.

We offer packages of 12 visits, 18 visits or 24 visits. You can also do a monthly plan of 2, 4 or 8 visits per month once you are on a wellness based plan.

Do you take insurance?

No, we are not in network with any insurance plans. We find that we can better serve our practice members without the rules and limitations dictated by insurance companies. We do, however, offer Superbills. A Superbill is an itemized receipt with diagnosis codes that you can submit to your insurance company to get reimbursed from them directly. Please check with your insurance company to see if they accept Superbills.

I don’t like the “cracking” part. Can I still benefit from chiropractic care?

Yes, absolutely! Many people are nervous about the “cracking”, aka cavitation of the joint. If you are not comfortable with it, or if you are too tight and tense for a manual adjustment, Dr. Maddie has a variety of tools and techniques she uses to help realign your body and support your nervous system. There are ways to provide an effective chiropractic adjustment without the loud cracking or quick, forceful movements. If you are hesitant about chiropractic or have questions regarding this please reach out.

Is chiropractic safe for babies and children?

Absolutely! Chiropractic adjustments for kids are very gentle, specific and non-invasive. When adjusting a newborn Dr. Maddie simply uses the tips of her fingers to apply gentle pressure. No twisting or popping!

Why would a baby or child need to be adjusted?

Chiropractic is all about the functioning of the nervous system, and guess what, they have nervous systems too!

The birthing process is not only stressful for the mother but for the baby as well. All of the twisting, torquing, compressing and pulling creates a lot of force on the infants fragile spine, especially if intervention is used during the birthing process. The upper neck region is the most commonly affected area and results in overall distortions in the spine and nervous system. The sooner the distortion is corrected the better.

For kiddos, although they are quite resilient, subtle trauma throughout childhood can affect the development of the spine leading to health issues down the line.

What does chiropractic help with?

The goal of chiropractic is to create the right environment for your body to heal itself. Therefore, if can help with a huge array of things! Chiropractic is a great way to reduce or eliminate pain, but that is just the tip of the ice berg.
