Why National Village Families Trust Herring Spine & Rehab

After more than four decades of serving Opelika families, we understand what matters most to you: getting real results without wasting time or money on treatments that don’t work.

Here’s what makes us different:

How We Get You Out of Pain: Simple 3-Step Process

Step 1: Thorough Evaluation & Diagnosis

We don’t rush through appointments. We take time to understand your health history, perform a complete examination, and take X-rays on-site if needed to identify the exact cause of your pain.

What this means for you: No guessing games. You’ll get a clear explanation of what’s wrong and why you’re hurting—in language you can understand, not medical jargon.

Step 2: Customized Treatment Plan

Based on your evaluation, our team creates a treatment plan designed specifically for your condition. This might include chiropractic adjustments, medical pain management, advanced therapies, or a combination approach. We’ll explain everything and answer all your questions.

What this means for you: Your treatment is tailored to YOU—not a cookie-cutter approach. And because we have both chiropractic and medical providers, we have more options to help you get better faster.

Step 3: Long-Term Relief & Prevention

As you improve, we teach you how to maintain your results through exercises, posture correction, and lifestyle changes. Our goal isn’t just to make you feel better temporarily—we want you to STAY better.

What this means for you: You’ll learn how to prevent pain from coming back so you can stay active with your family, perform well at work, and enjoy your life in National Village.

What National Village Residents Are Saying

“By far the best and most professional chiropractor I’ve been to. I’ve been a patient here for 6 years and love it!”

“Herring Spine & Rehab is consistently helping me improve my health. The staff is extremely courteous and helpful. They make you feel like family. I am very thankful that I found this gem!”

“Every single one of the staff is the most friendly and kind from the moment you walk in the door until you leave! I’ve been a patient for over 2 years and they’ve taken the BEST care of me!”

Common Questions from National Village Families

“How much will this cost? Do you take my insurance?”

We accept most major insurance plans including BCBS, Aetna, Humana, United Healthcare, Medicare, and many others. Our experienced insurance staff will check your benefits before you start treatment and handle all the paperwork. We’ve been working with insurance companies for 40+ years—we know how to maximize your coverage.

“Is chiropractic care safe for my family, including my kids?”

Absolutely. Chiropractic care is extremely safe—chiropractors have the lowest malpractice insurance rates of all healthcare providers. We regularly treat children (we’ve even adjusted newborns!), and they often respond faster than adults. Our techniques are gentle and always modified for each person’s age and comfort level.

“I’m busy with work and kids. Do I really have time for this?”

That’s exactly why we make it convenient. We offer extended hours Monday-Friday and Saturday appointments. Many National Village residents come during lunch breaks or on their way home from work. And because we’re an integrated practice, you can often see both chiropractic and medical providers in one visit—saving you time and hassle.

“How is your practice different from other chiropractors?”

The biggest difference is that we’re not just a chiropractic office—we’re an integrated medical and chiropractic practice. If chiropractic adjustments alone aren’t enough, we have medical doctors who can prescribe anti-inflammatory medications, muscle relaxants, or provide other treatments. You get everything you need under one roof without coordinating between different doctors’ offices.

“Will the adjustments hurt?”

No. Most people feel immediate relief and improved mobility after an adjustment. You might hear a popping sound (just gas releasing from the joint—totally normal), but the treatment itself isn’t painful. We use gentle, controlled techniques and always work within your comfort level. Some people are slightly sore afterwards (like after a workout), but that typically goes away within a day.

“What if you can’t help me?”

With 40+ years of experience and thousands of successfully treated patients, we’re confident we can help most people. During your first visit, we’ll be completely honest about whether we can help your specific condition. If we think you need a different specialist, we’ll tell you and help coordinate that referral. We have auxiliary privileges at East Alabama Medical Center, so we can seamlessly coordinate your care if needed.
