The Four Phases of Chiropractic Care
Our care is structured to get you out of pain fast — then keep you that way.
Relief Care
Reduce pain and inflammation as quickly as possible. Most patients see meaningful relief within the first few visits.
Corrective Care
Once symptoms ease, we work to retrain joints, muscles, and posture so the underlying problem actually gets fixed.
Strengthening
Targeted exercises to bulletproof the area against re-injury and rebuild confidence in your body.
Wellness Care
Optional periodic visits to keep you feeling great and catch small issues before they become big ones.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor?+
No. You can schedule directly with our office — no referral required for most insurance plans.
Will my first adjustment hurt?+
Most patients describe the experience as a brief pressure followed by immediate relief. Our doctors tailor every adjustment to your comfort level and never proceed without your consent.
Is chiropractic care safe?+
Yes — chiropractic is one of the safest forms of healthcare available. Our doctors are board-certified and trained in modern, evidence-based techniques.
Do you accept insurance?+
We accept most major health insurance plans, Medicare, and workers' compensation. Call us to verify your specific plan.
How many visits will I need?+
It depends on your condition, severity, and goals. Many patients feel significantly better in 2–6 visits; chronic conditions may take longer. We'll give you a clear estimate after your initial exam.
Can chiropractic help with headaches?+
Yes — both Dr. Mark and Dr. Ross routinely treat tension and migraine headaches with adjustments, soft-tissue work, and (when appropriate) acupuncture or dry needling.
Is it safe during pregnancy?+
Absolutely. Dr. Ross is Webster Technique certified, a specific approach designed for the unique needs of pregnant patients.
What should I wear to my appointment?+
Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing you can move easily in. Avoid dresses, skirts, or anything with thick belt buckles or back zippers.
