Common Questions from Ridge Road Residents

“Do you accept my insurance?”

Yes! We accept most major insurance providers including BCBS, Aetna, Humana, United Healthcare, Medicare, and many more. Our knowledgeable insurance staff will verify your coverage and handle all the paperwork for you.

“I’ve tried other chiropractors before and didn’t get results. Why would this be different?”

Every practice is different. What makes us unique is our integrated approach—combining chiropractic and medical care, our advanced techniques like Cox decompression, and our 40+ years of experience treating complex cases. We often help patients who haven’t found relief elsewhere because we have more tools in our toolbox.

“How long will treatment take?”

That depends on your specific condition and how long you’ve had it. Many patients feel some relief after just a few visits, but lasting results take time. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during your first appointment based on our decades of experience with similar cases.

“Is chiropractic safe?”

Yes. Chiropractors have the lowest malpractice insurance rates of all primary care providers because the treatment is so safe. We use gentle, controlled techniques and always work within your comfort level. Millions of Americans visit chiropractors every year with excellent safety records.

“Can you help with conditions other than back pain?”

Absolutely. While we’re known for back and neck pain, we successfully treat headaches, migraines, shoulder problems, knee pain, hip issues, ankle injuries, carpal tunnel, tennis elbow, and much more. We also offer weight loss programs, hormone therapy, and general wellness care.
