Frequently Asked Questions

A little about us: We think it’s unacceptable that our current healthcare system has normalized things like headaches, back pain, and taking lots of medication. Our team at Live Well strives to show our community a better way. We exist for anyone hoping to optimize their overall health through our corrective care chiropractic services as well as our lifestyle and supplement consultations. If you’re curious, we encourage you to book your first free consultation!

This method means we focus on you as a whole person: mind, body, and spirit. We believe in finding the root cause of health issues and addressing them instead of treating or simply covering up a symptom. We take into consideration your lifestyle habits, nutrition, stress factors, toxicity, mobility, water intake, mindset, the health of your nervous system, and anything that may affect your wholeness and wellbeing.
We are not a pain-based clinic. If you’re looking to walk in on your first visit, point to where it hurts, and get adjusted without x-rays, we are not that. We provide thorough corrective chiropractic care, create a plan specifically designed for you, and encourage you to create habits that serve you well. We believe being empowered with natural health knowledge is vital to everyone’s health journey.
-
We believe in clear expectations, transparency, and open communication. Because our care plans are personally created for each and every individual we provide care for, each plan will vary in recommendations and price.
At your second visit, a team member will go over your personalized recommendations, outline all costs, answer any questions you may have, and help you choose a payment plan. All plans include progress evaluations ($41), may include any necessary x-rays ($35 each), and may include recommended home rehab equipment.
Adult Corrective Care Plans
This is the first phase of care for new patients at Live Well. After this phase, patients typically transition to Wellness Care (see pricing below) to maintain their health. Plans typically range from 12 to 30 adjustments depending on needs at $72 per adjustment. Most monthly payments for corrective care plans are between $300–$550.
Prenatal Care Plans
Prenatal adjustments are $54.
The number of recommended prenatal visits will vary depending on the trimester you’re in, baby positioning, and if any symptoms are present.
Pediatric Care Plans (infant – 12 years)
Pediatric adjustments are $34.
Most pediatric plans include between 12 to 24 visits depending on each child’s specific needs.
Wellness Member Packages
Plans typically from 12 to 36 adjustments depending on needs at $54 per adjustment.
Wellness Member packages are available for any established patient who has either gone through our corrective care phase, is transferring from another chiropractic office, or has zero symptoms and is looking to support their body’s health through chiropractic care. You may choose a membership option that includes weekly, biweekly, or monthly. Plans typically from 12 to 36 adjustments depending on needs at $54 per adjustment.
Wellness Member adjustments are $43 .50.
*For established patients who prefer not to be a wellness member, wellness adjustments are $74 per visit.

Great question. Both modalities of care take place over time to make gradual improvements to a patient’s health. But while physical therapy and chiropractic care can go hand-in-hand, PT is for patients recovering from a specific injury or illness, and chiropractic care is for anyone hoping to improve their overall health. By removing interferences from the body during chiropractic adjustments, we improve the function of the nervous system, allowing your body to heal and function at 100% of its capacity.

Absolutely. Whether you train professionally or just love to work out, your body is all the more likely to develop aches, pains, or injuries along the way. At Live Well, our services can help you improve your performance, optimize your recovery, and prevent injury. We believe consistent chiropractic care is essential for maintaining and enhancing your health as an athlete.

Yes! We help a wide variety of clients in our community but are a family-oriented practice. We believe kids, parents, and grandparents alike should receive our comprehensive care so they can optimize their health and enjoy life to the fullest. From young children to pregnant mothers and more, we welcome you and your whole family!

Infants benefit from chiropractic care for breastfeeding problems, reflux, colic, and issues with crawling, standing, or other movements. Children can experience relief from ear infections, immune system response issues, headaches, scoliosis, delayed speech, asthma, constipation, urinary incontinence, and digestive issues.
Chiropractic adjustments for kids focus mainly on increasing the function of the nervous system. This is crucial to brain and nerve development, the immune system, behavior, balance, sleep, posture, and so much more.

The chiropractic adjustments we provide are specific, gentle, and effective. For adults, some soreness may be experienced as your spine begins to move in ways it hasn’t in years–similar to muscle soreness when beginning an exercise routine. Symptoms for adults can get worse before they get better as your body goes through the process of healing.

At Live Well we value clear expectations and transparency. By being out of network, we are able to clearly outline our pricing so patients may budget and plan accordingly.
Our care plans are designed for you and your specific needs, not by what your insurance will cover.
In general, insurance companies are not designed to cover preventative or wellness services. Medicare sets the bar for insurance coverage. Their guidelines state that services which “prevent disease, promote health, prolong and enhance quality of life…and prevent deterioration of a chronic condition” aren’t “medically necessary” and therefore are not reimbursable.
Fortunately for our patients, our services do indeed promote health and enhance quality of life. Unfortunately, insurance and our health care system (which is often a sick-care system) do not recognize our services as necessary.
We do serve patients with Medicare, simply as a non-participating Medicare office. Removing us as the middleman, Medicare will make any eligible reimbursements to patients directly.
For those who desire to file for reimbursement yourself, we will gladly provide you with the necessary documentation. We also accept HSA and FSA forms of payment.
We know insurance can be confusing and frustrating. As always, we welcome open and honest conversations about finances. Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions. We are here to help as best we can.

Usually, yes! Your first visit includes a short tour of our office, a posture exam, any necessary x-rays, a consultation, and an adjustment. Before you leave, we will schedule your next visit, during which we’ll review your x-rays and personalized care plan together.

Feel free to wear anything you are comfortable in that allows movement. Work clothes are completely fine. We do provide blankets if you come in a skirt and prefer more coverage.
