How much does chiropractic care cost?

Straight answers on what Newman Chiropractic's care costs, how HSA and FSA funds can be used for care.

Newman Chiropractic does not bill by the visit. Care is built into a corrective plan - the full investment is reviewed on visit two, before any care begins. HSA and FSA are accepted. No surprise bills, no hidden charges.
Most chiropractic offices charge per visit, which creates two real problems for patients. The first is that you cannot plan the full cost of getting better, so you cannot make a real decision about whether to commit. The second is that offices are incentivized to keep care open-ended. Newman Chiropractic uses a plan-based model instead. After the two-visit evaluation (which is its own defined cost), your corrective plan is presented as a package with clear start and end dates, typically 3 months, customized to your condition. You know the full investment before committing.
The other reason this matters: recovery has ups and downs. Some weeks you feel a lot better. Some weeks something flares back up and you wonder if it is working. That is normal. When you know exactly what the plan is and what it costs, you can stay committed to the process instead of second-guessing every week. We walk through that reality with every patient on visit two so there are no surprises in either direction.
Newman Chiropractic is fully cash-pay and does not bill insurance directly. We transitioned to cash-pay because insurance pays per adjustment and visits often run as short as 5 minutes and limited what we could recommend. Cash-pay gives patients longer visits, full access to all therapies, and no prior-auth surprises.

Yes, Newman Chiropractic accepts both HSA (Health Savings Account) and FSA (Flexible Spending Account) payments. Chiropractic care is generally an eligible expense for HSA and FSA accounts - check with your plan administrator to confirm eligibility for your specific account.
Insurance forced 5-minute visits, limited what we could recommend clinically, and turned patient care into billing codes. Dr. Jeff transitioned Newman Chiropractic to cash-pay so patients get longer evaluations, access to all therapies (decompression, laser, shockwave, nutrition), and the clinical freedom to build the right plan instead of the plan insurance would pay for.
Insurance-based chiropractic typically caps visits at 6 to 12 per year and rarely covers advanced therapies like Class IV laser or focused shockwave. Patients hit their cap, get denied for advanced care, then face surprise out-of-pocket costs anyway. Cash-pay eliminates that entire failure mode upfront.
Cash-pay eliminates the hidden costs most patients never account for: denied claims, visit caps, copays, and care fragmented across insurance-approved providers. Newman Chiropractic's plan-based model includes the therapies and progress tracking most practices bill separately. For patients using HSA or FSA, care is paid with pre-tax dollars, which effectively reduces the cost.
