Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to be seen?
No. You can schedule independently to chiropractic, physical therapy, and massage therapy without doctor's orders. However, if you're submitting claims, verify your plan's requirements.

Immediate evaluation is recommended. Postponing care risks long-term complications. PIP benefits require two-week treatment initiation of an auto accident to maintain PIP benefits.
Will I need diagnostic imaging?
Diagnostic imaging is ordered only when clinically indicated based on physical evaluation data, accident circumstances, or treatment plateau. We maintain referral relationships with regional radiology providers for rapid appointment access.
How long will treatment take?
Fresh injuries often demand 1.5 to 3 months of structured treatment. Complex cases involving disc herniation or multi-level involvement may require up to four months. Persistent conditions demand sustained intervention due to neuroplastic changes in pain processing.
