How much does a new patient visit cost?

Chiropractic Care
Does chiropractic adjustment hurt?
Most patients experience minimal to no discomfort during adjustments. You may hear a popping sound, which is simply gas releasing from the joint. Some patients experience mild soreness after their first few visits, similar to starting a new exercise routine.
How many visits will I need?
Treatment plans vary based on your condition, severity, and health goals. Some patients find relief in just a few visits, while others with chronic conditions may benefit from ongoing care. Dr. Jimmy will recommend a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.
Can children receive chiropractic care?
Yes, chiropractic care is safe and beneficial for patients of all ages, including infants and children. We use gentle, age-appropriate techniques for our pediatric patients.
Is chiropractic care safe during pregnancy?
Absolutely. Prenatal chiropractic care can help manage back pain, improve pelvic alignment, and support a healthier pregnancy. Dr. Jimmy is trained in techniques specifically designed for pregnant patients.
Shockwave & Peptide Therapy
What is Shockwave Therapy?
Shockwave Therapy uses acoustic waves to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. It's effective for treating chronic tendon pain, joint dysfunction, soft tissue injuries, and promoting tissue regeneration without surgery or medication.
Does Shockwave Therapy hurt?
Most patients describe the sensation as mildly uncomfortable but tolerable. The intensity can be adjusted based on your comfort level. Treatments typically last 10-15 minutes with no downtime.
What is peptide therapy?
Peptide therapy uses specific amino acid chains to support healing, energy, anti-aging, and overall wellness. These naturally occurring compounds help optimize your body's regenerative capabilities.
How long until I see results from these treatments?
Results vary by treatment and individual. Many patients notice improvement within a few sessions. Shockwave therapy patients often report reduced pain and improved function within 3-6 treatments.
Wellness & Specialized Therapies
What is myofascial release?
Myofascial release is a hands-on therapy that targets the fascia, the connective tissue surrounding your muscles and organs. By applying gentle sustained pressure, we release restrictions in the fascia to relieve chronic pain, improve range of motion, and restore mobility.
What is sports massage and who is it for?
Sports massage is a specialized form of massage therapy designed for athletes and active individuals. It focuses on preventing injuries, enhancing performance, and speeding up recovery. You don't have to be a professional athlete to benefit from this therapy.
What is the anti-inflammatory weight loss program?
Our anti-inflammatory weight loss program is a doctor-supervised approach that focuses on reducing systemic inflammation through personalized nutrition plans, supplementation, and lifestyle changes to achieve sustainable, healthy weight loss.
What naturopathic services do you offer?
Our naturopathic services include nutritional guidance, targeted supplementation, herbal medicine consultations, and whole-body healing strategies that work alongside your chiropractic care for comprehensive wellness.
Do you offer massage therapy?
Yes, we offer therapeutic massage to complement your chiropractic care. Massage helps relax muscles, improve circulation, reduce tension, and enhance the effectiveness of your adjustments.
Acupuncture & Additional Therapies
What conditions can acupuncture treat?
Acupuncture is effective for a wide range of conditions including chronic pain, headaches, stress, anxiety, digestive issues, and more. It works by stimulating specific points to promote natural healing and restore balance.
Is acupuncture painful?
Most patients find acupuncture relatively painless. The needles are very thin - much thinner than hypodermic needles. You may feel a slight sensation when needles are inserted, but most patients find the treatment relaxing.
What is spinal decompression therapy?
Spinal decompression is a non-surgical treatment that gently stretches the spine to relieve pressure on herniated or bulging discs. It's highly effective for disc-related back pain, sciatica, and spinal stenosis.
Do you treat auto accident injuries?
Yes, we specialize in treating auto accident injuries including whiplash, back pain, and soft tissue injuries. We work with auto insurance and personal injury cases. Early treatment is important for optimal recovery.
