PAYMENT OPTIONS
Insurance:
Most insurance plans are accepted at our office. We accept auto accidents, personal injury and most health insurance plans, including Medicare. Since there are so many plans and coverage varies widely, please call us to find out if your plan covers care in our office. It is of utmost importance to us to make care affordable and convenient for you. Before your first visit we will find out how much your insurance covers chiropractic care, so you will know upfront your portion of any services before they are provided, and so that we can fully discuss the financial options of your care with you.
No-Insurance
For patients who have little or no chiropractic insurance coverage, flexible payment programs can be arranged.

Many patients pay directly for care, as they discover chiropractic to be extremely cost-effective and affordable.

What to Expect During
Your Chiropractic Assessment / First Visit
Your Health History:
You’ll fill out some paperwork so that we can understand your health concerns. To help you save time in the office we have provided the New Practice Member Form here. You can print and fill these forms out before your appointment, saving you 10 to 15 minutes in the office.
The First Visit is usually a minimum of 60 mins
Our doctors will perform several tests on you at your initial appointment to determine if there are any issues with the actual spinal structure. In static palpitation, you keep your body still while the doctors feel your spine and tissues to discover any problematic issues. The doctors can feel problems such as areas of inflammation and pain. With motion palpation, we have you bend or flex a joint while we feel what’s going on with our hand.
The Chiropractic Postural X-Rays (If needed)
While they are not always necessary, we may recommend having specific chiropractic postural x-rays taken. This will be indicated by our examination, and details of your health history. Conveniently located in our office, our x-ray setup is simple, safe, and takes only a few minutes to complete. Please note that x-rays require a separate charge, which will depend on your insurance, non-insurance, or discount programs. This will be communicated to you before any services are performed.
Full Explanation Of Results
To complete your assessment, the doctors will explain the results of your test and report. They will take a few minutes to make sure and fully inform you of what you can expect from us, how care works at South Cherokee Chiropractic, what the adjustment is like, and what makes it different. The doctors will help you understand normal vs abnormal X-rays etc. During this time you’ll have the opportunity to ask plenty of questions and learn more about your health, and it may be improved by chiropractic care. No matter what, you will leave with validating information about what we’ve found, WHY you are feeling and experiencing what you are, and we will provide the next action to start getting the improvements you desire!
In that same appointment you will also receive your first adjustment from one of our doctors, should you decide to move forward with us! Let the healing, and quality of life improvement begin.
