Do you accept insurance?
The Chiropractic care provided by Spencer Chiropractic, LLC is covered by many different inurance plans, athough the type of coverage depends on your individual policy. For this reason, we ask that you bring your insurance card at the time of your first visit. Spencer Chiropractic will be happy to contact your insurance company to find out what your specific coverage is, your yearly deductible if there is one, and whether that deductible has been met. If your insurance covers Chiropractic care, we will file your insurance forms for you. In many cases, you are responsible for a deductible and a portion of the fee not covered by your contract.
What if I don’t have insurance
or don’t have coverage for Chiropractic care?
If you do not have insurance, or your insurance does not cover Chiropractic care, you will be given the opportunity to get involved in a program that makes the care you need available at affordable fees.
How can I pay for my visits?
Payment for all services are due at the time Chiropractic care is rendered, unless other arrangements have been made in advance. Spencer Chiropractic, LLC accepts cash, personal checks, Mastercard, Visa, American Express and Discover as forms of payment.
Do children need Chiropractic care?
Yes, Chiropractic adjustments to children are very gentle and effective. Even the so-called “normal” birth experience can subject a newborn’s delicate spine to excessive pressure and stress, causing spinal nerve interference. A Chiropractic adjustment removes this spinal nerve interference by gently correcting misalignments in the spine. This nerve interference can affect the infant’s ability to express health to his/her fullest potential.
Childhood is a very active time. Running, jumping, falls and accidents are all part of a normal childhood and yet they can cause spinal misalignments. Many parents may believe the children are fine because there is no external evidence of injury or obvious symptom. However, resulting spinal injuries are often overlooked and many times are left uncorrected. These subluxations can block the natural flow of life across the nerves to any part of the body.
Can pregnant women get adjusted?
Yes. Studies show that women are able to carry and deliver their babies with more comfort when receiving Chiropractic care. These adjustments are specifically tailored to the pregnant woman. Correcting vertebral subluxation ensures that both the expectant mother and her unborn child have the best opportunity to have a healthy pregnancy and birth. We believe strongly in the benefits of Chiropractic care to the mother and unborn child.
Why should I see a Chiropractor if I don’t have any pain?
Most if not all health problems begin long before any symptoms develop. Only 1/10th of the function of your nervous system is for sensation, the other 9/10th is for function of all the organs, glands and muscles in your body. In other words, you could have a lot of dysfunction going on and experience no pain at all! In addition, pain is different from person to person depending on tolerance levels. In many disease processes, pain is the last thing to appear and the first thing to go away.
Once I get adjusted,
will I have to see a Chiropractor for the rest of my life?
This is one of the myths about Chiropractic care. The truth is, it all depends on your personal health care goals. We will take care of you whatever that decision may be. Regular preventive Chiropractic care is a wise investment in your health. We hope that you find or come to see the benefit in our belief that early prevention-based care is easier and less costly than acute, relief-based treatment that is delayed because warning signs that were ignored. That is why we encourage maintenance and wellness care on a schedule that is appropriate for each individual. This is similar to eating healthy and getting exercise, something that must be done on a regular basis in order to reap the greatest benefits.
Once your relief care is completed, Dr. Spencer will suggest a schedule for corrective care, and then finally you will be recommended for a wellness and preventative care program. This is similar to going to the dentist for regular check-ups and cleaning, or to changing the oil in your car every 3000 miles. Occasionally, some people may need to have maintenance adjustments as often as once a week. Others may need to go as little as once a quarter. Dr. Spencer will make a recommendation based on their findings from your history, examinations, and prognosis. This will vary person-to-person depending on your past and current health history. Of course, how long you chose to benefit from Chiropractic care is always up to you. |
