To avoid the hassles and added costs of billing insurance companies, we have opted out of the insurance “game”. We are a cash based, pay-as-you-go practice. This enables us to keep our costs low, passing the savings on to you. We charge only 30 euros per treatment, enabling everyone access to quality care.
Chiropractic care is safe, effective, and generally free of side effects. In fact, recent studies have shown that patients with back pain have a higher chance of more serious side effects (including gastrointestinal bleeding) when taking over-the-counter (OTC) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as ibuprofen.
The answer to this question depends mainly on the patient, and his or her pain condition. However, as Spine-Health.com reports: “Good chiropractors do everything in their power to help their patients feel better as fast as possible with as few chiropractic treatments as necessary, ultimately reducing care to an as-needed follow-up plan. They also give advice on how to avoid future problems by evaluating lifestyle activities, ergonomics, posture, orthotics, and/or diet.”
