What to expect
A clear path from your first call to lasting results.
Every patient takes the same four steps, in the same order. There are no surprise add-ons and no high-pressure care plans.
- 01
Comprehensive Consultation
We sit down together to understand your full health history, your goals, and what you've already tried. No rushing, no jargon. Plan for about 45 minutes for this first conversation.
- 02
Precision Assessment
Using 3D imaging and neurological testing, we measure exactly how your upper cervical spine is positioned before any care begins. You'll see your own results on screen and we'll talk through them together.
- 03
Gentle, Specific Correction
Your first adjustment is tailored to your measurements. No twisting, no popping. Most patients describe it as a light, brief touch behind the ear.
- 04
Track & Refine
We re-check your alignment and progress at each visit, taper the frequency as you stabilize, and partner with you long term. The goal is for you to need us less, not more.
Your first visit, hour by hour
A 75 minute appointment, with no surprises.
Most new patients are seen within a week of reaching out. Here is exactly what to expect on the day of your consultation.
- 1
0 to 15 minutes
Welcome and intake review
We sit down together with the history form you completed online. No fluorescent waiting room, no clipboard handoffs.
- 2
15 to 35 minutes
Examination and 3D imaging
Postural analysis, neurological testing, and precision imaging if indicated. You will see your own results on screen.
- 3
35 to 55 minutes
Findings conversation
Dr. Lindgren walks you through what she is seeing and answers every question. If we cannot help, we will say so and refer you well.
- 4
55 to 75 minutes
First correction (if appropriate)
A specific, gentle adjustment based on your measurements, followed by a short rest period and a re-check.
Before you arrive
A short checklist.
Nothing here is required. Anything you can bring helps us help you faster.
- A current medication list, including supplements
- Recent imaging (MRI, CT, or X-ray) on a disc or PDF
- Notes on past treatments and how they went
- A loose top so we can read posture cleanly
- An open mindset, plus your questions written down
- A short list of activities that aggravate symptoms
Techniques and tools
The protocols behind every visit.
We pair the two most rigorously studied upper cervical protocols with objective neurological tracking so every adjustment is rooted in data.
NUCCA
The National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association protocol uses precise measurements taken from upright X-ray to calculate a custom correction vector for your atlas.
Blair Technique
A 3D imaging based approach that accounts for the asymmetry of your individual upper neck anatomy. No two corrections are alike.
Surface EMG & Thermography
Neurological scans that track how your nervous system is functioning between visits. These tell us when your body is holding the correction.
Postural & Gait Analysis
A baseline read of how your body moves under gravity, including leg length, pelvic level, and shoulder height.
Investment
Transparent self-pay pricing.
We are an out-of-network provider for most plans and a fee-for-service practice for everyone else. We will hand you a superbill at every visit so you can file with your insurance directly. No surprise charges, no upselling.
