Sound familiar
“my neck is stiff and it never fully loosens up”
8 quick questions about your own week, one at a time, and you get a score out of 100 and one next step. It takes about a minute. Nothing is collected and nothing is sent anywhere.
The part nobody explained
A neck that tightens on a schedule is usually holding a position rather than recovering from an injury, and stretching a muscle that is working does not stop it working.
Forward head position loads the lower neck segments all day, so the tightness returns every afternoon no matter what you did the night before.
The segment doing the complaining and the segment driving it are often different, which is why self-treating the sore spot keeps giving the problem back.
We look before we touch
Digital X-ray of the cervical spine, taken here, reviewed with you on the screen. We are looking at the curve through the neck and the position of the segments, and whether that accounts for where the tightness lands and what time of day it lands.
The first visit is the exam and the digital X-ray. Nothing is adjusted on it, because adjusting before looking is guessing. What the care itself costs is given to you in writing at the report of findings, before you decide.
What we would use on it
Which of these applies to your case comes out of the exam rather than off this page.
- Chiropractic CareRestores the structure and takes pressure off the nervous system.
- Class IV Laser TherapyCalms the area down so the structural work can hold.
- Soft Tissue Therapy and Exercise RehabTrains the muscles to hold the correction so you stop relapsing.
- StemWave TherapyWorks on the tissue itself, which is the part an adjustment alone cannot reach.
Two phases, and you are told which one you are in
Whatever is driving your neck pain, the shape of care here is the same and you are told which phase you are in the whole way through.
- Phase one
Correct what is driving it
Scoped before it starts. You are told how many visits it is built around, what is being measured, and when the re-exam happens, and you get that in writing with the price at the report of findings.
- The exam and the digital X-ray come first, so the plan answers to findings.
- A scheduled re-exam measures it rather than asking how your week went.
- When this phase is finished, you are told that it is finished.
- Phase two
Preserve what has been corrected
A body keeps loading, so a correction is something you keep rather than something you finish. What maintaining it looks like is explained with the reasons on the table, and it is a decision you make knowing what it is for.
- Discussed once the corrective phase is measured, not assumed at the start.
- You know what you are paying for and why, at every point.
- Nobody here will tell you a result holds forever on its own.
What patients said afterwards
The entire staff is so kind, welcoming, and truly cares about their patients.

Questions people ask about neck pain
I am nervous about anyone adjusting my neck.
Say so, and say it before anything happens. Nothing is adjusted on the first visit at all, because the first visit is the exam and the images. At the report of findings you see what we found and hear what is proposed, and you can decline any part of it. There are soft tissue and laser options that involve no neck adjustment.
Will this fix my posture or just the pain?
They are the same work here. The corrective phase addresses the position that keeps reloading the neck, and the re-exam measures it rather than asking you how it feels. Feeling better and measuring better are two different things and you get told both.
How much is this going to cost in total?
The first visit is the exam and the digital X-ray. The full corrective plan is priced in writing at the report of findings, before you commit to any of it. We are cash pay, so the number you are quoted is the number.
