Question 1

What types of conditions can chiropractic care help with?

Accepted Answer

While most patients start care for help with back pain, neck pain, headaches, pregnancy or pediatric concerns, we provide care for all ages, shapes and sizes.

Question 4

How does chiropractic care support infants and children, especially those with tongue tie?

Accepted Answer

From the very beginning of life, the spine plays a vital role in your child’s overall health. Because significant spinal stress can occur during the birthing process, many parents choose to have their newborns gently evaluated and assessed by a chiropractor. Early detection can help set the foundation for a healthier nervous system and a more resilient body.

As children grow and explore their world, whether learning to walk, riding a bike, or just engaging in everyday play, they’re bound to take a few tumbles. While a scraped knee is easy to see and soothe, subtle shifts in the spine are not always as obvious. That’s where chiropractic care becomes an essential part of proactive wellness.

Common childhood complaints, often dismissed as simple “growing pains,” can sometimes signal underlying spinal imbalances. Regular chiropractic checkups can help detect and address these issues early, supporting better alignment, balance, and well-being through every stage of growth.

Our chiropractors have training in helping breastfeeding challenges and cranial distortion that might be affecting tongue and jaw movements. Local midwives, doulas and lactation consultants regularly refer newborn clients to us for an assessment and gentle, safe care.

At Broadmoor Chiropractic Massage Naturopathy, our approach to pediatric care is always  tailored and age-appropriate. Most children enjoy their appointments and parents frequently notice that their kids seem healthier, more energetic, and more balanced.

Question 5

Is it beneficial for pregnant women and postpartum recovery?

Accepted Answer

We approach perinatal and pediatric chiropractic care with calmness and observation.  When we observe signs of pain, low morale or challenges to self-regulate, we will introduce and suggest a technique(s) that compliments the individual. The techniques we use with pregnant families, including Webster,(https://icpa4kids.com/training/webster-certification/webster-technique/) will also be tailored and respect examinations findings and personal health–related goals.

Question 6

Does insurance typically cover chiropractic treatments?

Accepted Answer

While many clients at our office pay for their healthcare in full with no extended benefits, if you have extended benefits through your employer or a private plan, we can help you determine your coverage.

We offer direct billing to many insurance providers. This means we can submit your claims directly to your insurance company on your behalf, reducing out-of-pocket expenses.
​
Direct billing eligibility depends on your individual insurance plan. If you have insurance and prefer another way, you can pay at the time of your appointment, and we will provide you with a receipt for reimbursement.
​​​
Our fees vary for each practitioner and each type of visit/ care provided. Coverage for such fees may be full, or partial, depending on your insurance. Please note that at your first visit of the year, there is commonly a deductible to pay.

Question 7

Do I need a referral from a doctor to start chiropractic care?

Accepted Answer

You do not need a doctor's referral to start chiropractic care if your concerns are unrelated to a motor vehicle accident or workplace injury claim. While some insurance providers may require a doctor's note to provide coverage, it is best to contact them to confirm.
