FAQs
What do I need to do before my appointment?
Once we schedule your New Practice Member Appointment we will send you an email with the Application For Care attached. Please print the application and have it completed prior to your visit. If you are unable to complete your application please arrive a minimum of 15 minutes prior to your appointment time to complete it. Also bring with you your insurance card and photo ID if you would like us to verify any benefits you may have.
What happens when I get there?
– Step 1: Consultation, Examination, Customization
Upon arrival you will complete/finish any necessary paperwork, followed by a brief tour of our facility. You will then meet with one of the Doctors to review your case history. If your doctor determines an examination is warranted and you would like to go ahead, a comprehensive Neuro-Structural Examination will be performed and all necessary data will be collected. This will help the doctor determine your level of function, the condition of your spine and clarify the root cause of your health concerns. Following the test results and analysis, the doctor will interpret your results. If a core problem is uncovered with your spine and nervous system, a customized plan will be designed and presented to you on your next visit. Please allow 45-60 minutes for this appointment.
– Step 2: Review of your Results.
Your Review of Results visit will be scheduled promptly following your first visit. The doctor will have studied your case file and customized requirements for care specifically for you. This visit is intended to give you greater clarity into your condition and specify how we can help you achieve your desired health goals. Plan on 45 minutes for this appointment.
When will I know the total cost?
You will know the exact costs before incurring any bill. While we cannot determine your actual cost until after a proper examination and the doctor completes your care requirements, at that time we will be clear and upfront about the cost. Our fees are very reasonable, especially compared to the cost of traditional medical care, and we work with you to find the best path to pay for your care.
If you don’t take my insurance, can I come to your office?
Yes. We have a thriving practice. We follow a direct primary care model to keep our expenses low for our patients. Our fees are designed for both people with and without insurance. Our standard fees are very reasonable, lower than most insurance copays. The majority of insurances in Tennessee offer minimal coverage for chiropractic services making it an out of pocket expense even for the insured patient.
How often will I need to get a correction?
Frequency is determined by the condition of your spine and corresponding health issues, your goals and the recommendation of your doctor. Ultimately the doctor’s recommendations will reflect whatever will ensure you achieve the best results.
I'm nervous about getting Corrected.
We completely understand. Many of our patients feel this way initially but were able to overcome this apprehension. First, please understand you will not be receiving a correction until the examination and testing has been completed and you and the doctor discuss your case and you decide to go ahead with care.
Second, realize that a chiropractic correction is a specific scientific intervention provided by a licensed physician.
The correction is a gentle and specific alignment of the misaligned vertebra of your spine. Often the misalignment present is the root cause of your pain, discomfort, or health condition, and why you’ve considered chiropractic care in the first place. As your spine is aligned and corrected, you will feel like you have a new lease on life, at least that is what we constantly hear from our patients. Finally, there are several correction techniques we employ to ensure that we work successfully with all different body types. We are confident you will have a positive experience.
