Common Questions
How long is the first visit?
Your first appointment typically lasts 45-60 minutes. We take time to understand your condition thoroughly and often begin hands-on treatment during that same visit.
Do I need a referral?
No referral needed for most insurance plans. Texas Direct Access laws allow you to see a sports chiropractor without physician approval, though some insurance plans may require a referral for coverage.
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable, athletic clothing that allows you to move freely. Avoid tight jeans or restrictive garments.
Will I receive treatment on my first visit?
Yes, most patients do. After we understand your condition, we typically begin hands-on treatment so you can feel results immediately.
How do I prepare?
Complete online intake forms if available, bring your insurance card and photo ID, and wear comfortable clothing.
