Frequently Asked Questions
Have a chiropractic-related question?
Back to Wellness Chiropractic has the answer.
What types of conditions do you treat?
We help patients manage everything from everyday aches and pains to chronic conditions and injury recovery. Common issues include back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches, arthritis, fibromyalgia, sports injuries, and more. Visit our Conditions Treated page for a full list.
Do I need a referral from a doctor to see a chiropractor?
No referral is necessary. You can book an appointment directly with us — whether you’re seeking chiropractic care, SoftWave Therapy, or Red Light Therapy.
What should I expect at my first visit?
Your first visit includes a one-on-one consultation, a detailed physical exam, and X-rays if needed. From there, we’ll create a treatment plan tailored to your goals. Visit our Your First Visit page for a full walkthrough.
Do you offer new patient specials?
Yes! We take insurance; however, for those who are cash pay, we offer a $150 new patient special that includes a consultation, exam, X-rays (if needed), and adjustment. We also offer $49 consultation + initial treatment specials for both SoftWave and Red Light Therapy. See our New Patient Specials for details.
Is chiropractic care safe?
Yes. Chiropractic adjustments are safe, gentle, and non-invasive when performed by a trained professional. With over 24 years of experience, our team is focused on care that is personalized and effective.
What is chiropractic care?
Chiropractic care involves gentle spinal adjustments to help improve mobility, reduce nerve interference, and support the body’s natural healing process. It’s commonly used to relieve pain, improve posture, and promote overall wellness.
How long will my appointment take?
Initial visits typically take 45–60 minutes. Follow-up visits are usually 15–30 minutes, depending on your treatment plan.
Do you accept insurance?
Yes, we accept most major insurance plans. Please call our office to confirm your coverage and benefits.

How do I book an appointment?
You can call us directly at 314-394-2093 or contact us online through our website form.
What is SoftWave Therapy?
SoftWave is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic sound waves to stimulate cellular repair, increase circulation, and reduce inflammation. It’s especially helpful for joint pain, tendinitis, plantar fasciitis, and soft tissue injuries. Learn more on our SoftWave Therapy page.
What is Red Light Therapy used for?
Red Light Therapy uses low-level light wavelengths to reduce inflammation, relieve joint and muscle pain, and support body contouring and skin health. It’s often used in combination with chiropractic care to promote faster recovery. Learn more on our Red Light Therapy page.
What if I don’t have insurance?
No problem — we offer competitive self-pay rates and flexible new patient specials to keep care affordable.
Do you offer same-day appointments?
Yes, we offer same-day appointments whenever possible. Give us a call, and we’ll do our best to get you in quickly.
