The cost of treatment will differ depending on which chiropractor you choose to see, and the condition(s) you present with. Chiropractors use a fee schedule that outlines suggested treatments and fees, provided by our governing body.
An initial consultation will cost approximately $50-$100 dollars. In this consultation the chiropractor will go over your medical history, give you a specific physical examination, give you a report of their findings, and possibly give you treatment right away. Not all chiropractors will give treatment on the first visit, and no chiropractor will give treatment on the first visit if there are any potential risks (If a joint is inflamed for instance).
Subsequent visits will range in price from $30-$45 dollars and usually includes any necessary adjustments or muscle work.
Modalities such as ultrasound, laser, and IFC are sometimes included in your visits, but there could be an extra charge.
Specialized muscle techniques such as Active Release Technique and Graston Technique can sometimes include a nominal fee.
If you require orthotics, fees will include a biomechanical gait analysis and your fitting and will likely range between $350-$600 dollars.
Clinics that perform their own x-rays will also have their own fees which should be posted in the clinic.
Some clinics will offer lower rates for students and seniors. Be sure to ask your chiropractor if they offer such rates. |
