Pigeon Chiropractic & Deer Holistic

What you can expect from me as your holistic health specialist:
1. I listen and address your issues from multiple perspectives. I check for anything and everything within my knowledge that may be contributing to your signs and symptoms... ie. structural, muscular, nutritional, organ dysfunction, hormonal, stress, allergies, brain function, etc. All through the use of natural techniques and modalities.
2. I am two specialists in one as I am trained in many different naturopathic techniques as well as classic chiropractic styles. From gentle non-force and low-force techniques to activator methods or even traditional high force adjusting when necessary.
3. Most patients feel results the same day and have significant progress over a short period of time... days to a few weeks. I find this even with patients in chronic pain. (6+ months to 40 years)
4. I have seen people for every ailment under the sun. I never shy away from a challenge but, I also do not hesitate to refer to other professionals in order to guide in the right direction if warranted. Sometimes I get to be the guide and sometimes I need to refer to a different health professional to help the patient. My ultimate priority is you and your health!
5. Quality of life is my primary goal for all of my patients. I will do my best in all circumstances to help you be the healthiest you can be.
6. I do not bill insurance as they do not reimburse for all of the special modalities that I use, and instead charge one low fee for each treatment no matter what it involves... You will save money in the long run with less time off from work from pain and less time going to repetitive doctors visits, as I get people on their road to recovery very quickly, usually within 3-4 treatments! In addition, people hold their adjustments for longer and feel much better overall from my broad spectrum natural treatment techniques.

Isn't it time you began investing in yourself? Start enjoying the freedom of less pain in your life today!

I've been doing some online training programs for continuing education credits, and one of the most prevalent things I have heard about is statistics that show the absolute underutilization of chiropractic in healthcare. I don't understand why in this day and age of knowing the importance of prevention, people are not reaching out more for their daily physical and mental struggles! Alot of the underlying causes for poor states of health is nerve impingement and poor chemistry due to homeostatic imbalances! That's what we address as chiropractors, and the delivery of increased vitality and homeostasis is so underrated by humans in general (not including those who use our profession to its fullest). I perceive this to be a societal problem. That we as a society are not opening our minds to the possibility that preventative healthcare should include structural bodywork, musclework and nutrition guidance which in turn delivers limitless benefits for our bodies! Winter is here and the harvest season has come to a close. Time to work on ourselves like our farmers care for their equipment and take notes from nature just like the animals hibernating and resting up for the spring! Get ahead of those underlying health issues now before it's too late. And just tell everyone you know... "You can really benefit from chiropractic care and staying ahead of illness, I know I have!" Please spread the word!

When we feel that our body is burning with fever, the first thought is to get rid of it. It is especially difficult to be relaxed about fever when it attacks our kids. We are ready with pills, cold showers, compresses, cold drinks, anything to bring the temperature down. But, fever or increased body...

I hear alot of crazy things about chiropractors from people....

1. I hear that once you start going, you have to keep going....

Well, if you go to the dentist and get your teeth cleaned, will you never eat again? It's all about maintenance of one's body! Of course, there may be a future need for adjustments because we constantly use our bodies in "not so nice" ways. I am not a believer however in 1, 2 or 3 times a week for long term.... If you are not holding your adjustments longer than a few days (after weeks), something is being missed... either on a different level (emotional, nutritional, biomechanical, muscular, etc.) or there is an instability problem further down in the hips, knees, ankles or feet! My average careplan for my patients is 4 - 6 adjustments over the course of 1-2 months to get over most episodes. Generally after that, patients feel good and are on a great path towards healing. I am there for them if needed, but through education of mindfulness and self-assessment of your own body, you will know when it's necessary to come back.

2. I hear chiropractic can really hurt you....

That's why i went to school post-secondary for 9 years.... to make sure I was so well-trained that I have the proper skills to adjust you safely! That's also why I am not a proponate of self-adjusting and cringe when I hear about people adjusting eachother or 'walking on backs'.... that's a quick way to slip a disc out of place, and can cause injury very easily! Once in awhile, I hear a story in the news of someone getting injured by a chiropractor.... which unfortunately does happen on an extremely small scale in my profession. However, I have safely worked with many people even after surgeries. I have had orthopedists who refer patients to me. Mostly, because i am known for my gentler adjusting techniques.

3. Well, chiropractors aren't real doctors....

My student loan begs to differ..... LOL.
While I do not prescribe medication or perform surgery during my treatments.... my patients get BETTER without all of that!

4. Chiropractic costs so much.....

???????seriously???????

My average case management is between $300-$400 over the course of 4-6 weeks. When i tell people that, they are usually shocked! Especially when their medications may cost 2-3 times that (or more) per month!!

5. I don't have backpain though....

Chiropractic is not just about back pain... it is about whole body functioning. Making you, the best you can possibly be! Compare your spine to the fuse box in your house. When a surge of bad energy comes into the system, a fuse trips in order to protect the appliances and parts of your home from damage, right? Well, the spine does the same thing for our body. Now,...you wouldn't leave the fuse tripped and non-functioning, right? Instead, you would go and reset it so its ready the next time. That's part of what we do... get your body ready for the next big trauma that comes into the system! I honestly don't understand how some people survive this life without chiropractic care! I would say, it's actually only about half of my patients that come to see me for back pain. The rest are having trouble with arms, legs, hands, feet, fertility, other illnesses, behavioral problems, hormonal issues or some other nervous system dysfunction! I never know what's going to walk through my door! New puzzles to figure out all day long :)

Honestly! I wouldn't have it any other way.... it's what drives me to learn more and more about the human body everyday! No matter who walks through my door, I care for them as if they were my own family♡♡♡ I am always blessed to be a part of their healing journey. Chiropractic is such a blessing to this world and when practiced with all of these things in mind, can truly be lifechanging for all people!!!

Some of you may have questions regarding the cost of Chiropractic care from us... Here is information regarding my pricing and fees:

I am a specialist chiropractor and get people on the road to healing within the first few treaments...
At the present time, we can accept cash, checks, credit cards, HSA or flex plans for payment.

Typical Case management for a new cash patient on average is $300 - 500 for the total regimen ...depending on the severity of the case. Generally, that is spread over the course of 4 -6 weeks of care. Then you are done, and usually do not need to return unless something new happens (accident, slip and fall, etc.) Most patients see me 3-6 times and they feel good and know what to do for themselves to hold their adjustment... (and what not to do). By the end of the first visit, you will be armed with so much more knowledge of your body and have a plan in place to support healing of the underlying root cause. I check people on multiple different levels and address their issues through holistic care (whole body) including structural, hormonal, biomechanical, nutritional, emotional, organ system function, etc.

As a new patient, you will begin with a consultation, exam, spinal adjustment, extremity adjustment and nutritional assessment. The initial cost is $210. Thereafter, each visit is usually $70 depending on the level of adjustment. (This rarely may change if additional treatment modalities are necessary.) After the initial regimen is completed, many people only come for followups 'as needed' and I might not see them for months or years in between!

Additionally, there are special rates for children 17 and under.

All things considered, when you think of prescriptions, or missing work, or hospital visits and diagnostic testing, we are extremely reasonable in overall cost per patient☆☆☆
