Does a chiropractic adjustment hurt?

Most patients find adjustments comfortable and often feel relief afterward. Some people notice mild soreness after a visit, similar to what you might feel after exercise, which typically fades quickly. We will always explain what we are doing and adjust our technique to your comfort level.

Do I need a referral to see a chiropractor?

In most cases, no. You can schedule directly with our office. If your insurance plan has its own requirements, we recommend checking with your provider or calling us so we can point you in the right direction.

How many visits will I need?

It depends on your condition, how long you have had it and how your body responds to care. After your exam, we will outline a recommended plan and timeline, and we will update it as you progress.

Yes. Whiplash, neck and back pain, and other symptoms can appear right after a collision or days later. Learn more about how we help with auto injuries and personal injuries.

Can chiropractic help with sciatica or headaches?

Many patients seek chiropractic care for sciatica and headaches and migraines. After evaluating your situation, we can explain whether care at our office is appropriate and what a plan could look like.

Do you offer acupuncture?

Yes. We offer acupuncture in Tulsa as part of our range of services. It can be used on its own or alongside other care, depending on your needs.

Do you provide custom orthotics?

We do. Custom orthotics are designed to support your feet and help improve how you stand, walk and move. Read more about our custom orthotics.

Can you help with nutrition and lifestyle habits?

Yes. Daily habits such as diet, posture, activity and workstation setup can affect how you feel. We offer nutritional consultations and lifestyle advice to support the progress you make in the office.

Is chiropractic care safe?

Chiropractic care is considered a safe, conservative option when performed by a trained professional. We review your history and complete an exam before beginning care, so we can choose techniques that are appropriate for you.

Do you accept insurance?
