Chiropractic Treatment Cost

The 4 Most Important New Patient Questions

​When new patients call our office we understand they are looking for immediate pain relief, prompt service and fair fees. We also understand our new patients want four questions answered:
  1. What is my problem?
  2. Can you help?
  3. How long will it take to feel better?
  4. How much will the treatment cost?

What New Patients Can Expect:
1. We will schedule you for an evaluation and treatment as soon as possible.  

2. We will relay all cost for any treatment in our office prior to treatment. We understand cost can be the primary factor in your health care.

3. After a thorough health history and examination we promise to refer you to the proper specialist if your condition is not one in which we can help.

4. If your condition is one in which we feel our treatment can help, we will explain the problem, discuss how long we think it will take, and how much treatment will cost so you can make an informed health care decision.

5. We will explain to best of our ability the treatment options and how soon it will take to relieve your pain and restore you normal bodily functions.

Fees for Service

Examination - $100 and up, depending on the service needed.
  • The receptionist will be able to give you specific amounts when you call. Cost varies depending on complexity of the problem. If you have low back pain versus, neck, upper back, mid back, lower back, headaches, shoulder pain and pain down your leg, the complexity and time that will be required are completely different.

Digital X-rays - $50 per view (most people need at least two)
  • We take x-rays to help make sure you are a candidate for treatment, to screen for pathology, to determine if you have ligament damage or degenerative changes, becasue these things change your treatment plan and prognosis.
​
​Therapies - $40 and up
  • We offer a number of different therapies in our office. These therapies are recommended based on your problem. Once we have reviewed your health history, exam findings, and x-rays we will be able to give you specific recommendations and treatment costs.

​Spinal Adjustments - ​$45 and up
  • Spinal adjustment cost varies depending on how many regions of the spine are adjusted. There are five regions of the spine that may need to be adjusted, this is determined through exam and x-ray findings.

*We will notify you of all costs before any services are rendered. You will never go from one step to the next in our office without having a clear understanding of cost.

Do you take health insurance?

​We will not file health insurance for you, but we will provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

Many of the advanced therapies we use in our office are considered "non-covered" by some insurance companies. 

Dr. Shook decided a long time ago that he would not let insurance coverage dictate the decisions he makes in the care of his patients, and opted out of all health insurance plans.
