We do not bill insurance for our services, but we will provide you with a “superbill” which you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. It is your responsibility to check guidelines on what will be reimbursed. Flexible payment plans can be arranged.

When labs are necessary, we will place an order to LabCorp that can be completed at any location across the country. Other Functional Lab Testing will come in a testing kit directly to your house for stool, saliva, or bloodspot collection. A prepaid shipping label is included for returning to the lab for evaluation.

We regularly recommend a variety of supplements from certified and qualified companies. We look for products that are made with superior ingredients and have been extensively researched and tested. We look for highly effective supplements in therapeutic doses to support your body’s metabolism and nutrient absorption. We are happy to discuss specific supplement recommendations as part of a functional medicine consultation, ensuring you are educated about the best product for you. You can shop our online dispensary here.

The majority of lab testing is typically done at home, but blood work will also need to be completed at a phlebotomy center. We will direct you to the appropriate clinic depending on the labs that are ordered. Many of the tests have shipping included in the cost of the kits, otherwise you will be responsible for the fee. You will get full instructions on how to complete the tests. Payment is made either directly to the lab, or through The Facility according to our negotiated practitioner pricing.

Functional Medicine care will typically require in-depth comprehensive laboratory analysis using both conventional and functional lab testing. Please be aware that insurance will likely not cover many of the labs ordered from specialized companies like Genova, Diagnostic Solutions, DUTCH, and Cyrex. Testing is something that will be discussed in detail at your initial appointment and report of findings with recommendations made on an individual basis. Most patients invest an average of $500-1500 in initial testing.

Chiropractic care is very safe. According to the American Chiropractic Association, the risk of negative effect is only 1 in 5 million! This is far less than traditional medical procedures. The benefits of chiropractic far outweigh the risk- and the improved quality of life speaks for itself. Read more about our Chiropractic Services and talk to our providers if you have concerns.

Your bones are not cracking! The gapping of a joint during an adjustment creates a small temporary air pocket. Variance of pressure and nitrogen gas release during manipulation creates the pops and cracks you hear. No damage occurs and it is safe and natural!

Just like any post-graduate doctoral program (i.e., medical, osteopathic, dental), Chiropractic school is a rigorous 4-year program that meets the same educational criteria. Doctors of Chiropractic (D.C.s) are licensed physicians who meet state and national standards, including board exams and continuing education. Chiropractors are primary providers, similar to your family physician. You do not need a referral from a medical doctor to see a chiropractor.

While very effective for acute care (Think: that pinch in your back), Chiropractic is a pillar of wellness. Just as we see a dentist regularly for our teeth, an optometrist for our eyes… a regular Chiropractic checkup on your spine and joints is part of a healthy routine. Routine wellness visits keep you in optimal health.

We do not offer traditional financing for Functional Medicine and Physical Medicine care plans. We do our best to work within your means to create a payment plan that works for you.

Functional Medicine is a more holistic approach to wellness. Instead of focusing on single symptoms, we look at your body as a complete system. Everything is connected - Everything matters - Everybody is different. We are able to spend more time getting to know YOU and helping you understand how to be healthy.

We are out-of-network for all insurance networks. It is unlikely that functional medicine consults and advanced lab tests are covered by your insurance. We are happy to provide a receipt for services that you can submit for possible reimbursement.

The majority of lab testing is typically done at home, but blood work will also need to be completed at a phlebotomy center. We will direct you to the appropriate clinic depending on the labs that are ordered. Payment is made directly to The Facility according to our negotiated practitioner pricing. We will recommend very specific tests for you following an Initial Functional Medicine Visit. After your review, we will input lab orders and give further instruction on completion.

We included select follow-up testing in the Functional Medicine Care Plan. This helps assess your progress after a few months of intervention, and direct any further change that is necessary. For ongoing care, we find that a Comprehensive BioScreen is a useful annual "wellness" lab for assessing baseline health. Think of this as routine bloodwork your Primary Care Physician would run.

We see the best outcomes with directed guidance following lab testing. We do not offer testing outside of Functional Medicine care. As clinicians, we want the best for you and this is the model that allows us to see that through.
