Frequently Asked Questions

The clinic describes a gentle, low-force, hands-only method that uses a Reflex Activated Leg Check to identify nervous system interference and then applies specific thumb-thrust style adjustments without mechanical devices.

The clinic notes that the first visit is thorough and patients should plan for about 90 minutes including intake paperwork. Dr. Otto reviews health history, explains the approach, performs physical, orthopedic, and neurological exams, and then provides a low-force adjustment. The clinic also notes patients may change into a gown because the assessment and adjusting require skin access.

The website states the clinic is out-of-network and does not submit claims to insurance companies. It also notes the office provides superbills in a mail-ready format that patients can send to their insurer for potential reimbursement.

The clinic states it does not routinely require X-rays before adjusting and relies primarily on its reflex-based analysis, while noting imaging may be recommended when clinically necessary after examination.

The clinic notes that low-force adjustments often do not produce an audible pop and that sound is not used as proof of a correction. It describes verifying results by rechecking the reflex response after the adjustment.

The clinic offers appointments including same-day options and notes it is open late with some Saturday availability by appointment. It also states payment is by cash and check only, with no card transactions.
