                            Why no more insurance?
                            Health insurance coverage is changing rapidly and the Chiropractic adjustment has been changed into nothing more than another medical treatment, and along with it, the price has raised beyond reason.  Arbitrary rules and the paperwork now required have tremendously increased the cost of providing this basic service.  The choice to limit my practice to the removal of vertebral subluxations and nerve interference, without medical diagnosis dramatically reduces the records, claims paperwork, staff, office size, equipment and supplies necessary to run an effective and efficient office.  Consequently, this technically classifies the adjustment as non-therapeutic, and therefore, a "non-covered service" that is not reimbursable by most health insurance (although some flexible spending programs may reimburse you).  So, why should you pay 2-3 times the price just to have the "luxury" of meeting high deductibles and ridiculous co-payments?  With a practice limited to subluxation correction, along with an affordable membership program, your out-of-pocket costs will like be significantly less than if you actually filed insurance claims.“luxury” of meeting high deductibles and ridiculous co-payments?  With a practice limited to subluxation correction, along with an affordable membership program, your out-of-pocket costs will likely be significantly less than if you actually filed insurance claims.
                             
                            Do I have to buy a membership?
                            Of course not.  You don't "have to" do anything.  However, getting your spine checked should be a regular part of everyone's routine for healthy living, just like exercise, eating right, a good night's sleep and brushing your teeth.  Subluxations reduce the performance of everything your body does, whether you have a medical condition or not.  Our memberships simply allow an easy, affordable way for the whole family to get all the chiropractic adjustments they need— even every day we're open, if necessary.  I can honestly say that the majority of those folks that have experienced what this type of care can offer, they can't imagine doing it any other way.  For those that choose to come "as needed", they can simply pay the per-visit fee just as they always have.

                            Tell me a little more about the 'Memberships'...Am I locked in forever?
                            We created the memberships to make getting regular Chiropractic care affordable.  We currently have two membership levels available.  The first is our original 'annual' membership, which has a minimum commitment of 12 months.  This membership has additional benefits and saves you the most money.  Most folks choose this one.  We also have a 'month-to-month' membership, in which there is no minimum commitment.

                            Remember, we are trying to remove barriers, not create them.  So, unlike most cell phone plans and gym memberships, we have no additional start up costs, penalties or cancellation fees.

                            Really?  No more appointments?
                            That's right!  After your first visit, simply stop by anytime during our "open adjusting hours".  Our non-therapeutic approach means all spinal checks will be quick and your wait time should be short.  And because new patients are scheduled outside these hours, you will be in and out within a matter of minutes, with little disruption to your busy day.

                            Your downtown, how's the parking?
                            The Flying M building has an adjacent parking lot with approximately 16 free spaces for customers, plus there are usually plenty of metered parking spots (first 20 min. free) & 1-2 hour free parking spaces on the surroundings streets nearby.

                            Why should I attend your FREE Orientation Talk?
                            A choice to forgo insurance coverage and encourage routine spinal check-ups (even without a backache or stiff neck) requires some explanation.  This weekly 45-minute talk will clarify our rationale and provide you with a new understanding of the capacity of the body to repair itself from the inside out.  This is designed for new patients, currents patients and any friends or family they bring as guests.  Additionally, all those attending will entered into a drawing for ONE FREE YEAR of Chiropractic Care.  This drawing will be held every six weeks (or every 6 talks).  So, if you need a bribe, there it is!
