Life Enhancement Family Chiropractic:
High Tech, Lower Fees in a Healthy and Relaxed Setting.
Life Enhancement Family Chiropractic (LEFC) has a unique new approach to serving and enhancing peoples’ lives through Chiropractic Care. LEFC has transformed traditional Chiropractic in the following ways:
1. HIGH TECH! The doctors use state of the art technology to detect interference in your nervous system as well as groundbreaking, new methods for the detection, location and management / correction of small misalignments in your backbone called vertebral subluxations. This includes surface electromyography and a newly added state of the art digital x-ray imaging machine which will have your results waiting for you in minutes.
2. LOW FEES. We can process and handle auto accident insurance claims, but we do not accept personal health insurance as of this time. We have streamlined our office, so we have reduced our fees to be less than most co-pays for regular visits. By eliminating health insurance billing, we can give more valuable time to our practice members and significantly reduce time spent tracking down unpaid claims.
3. GENTLE BUT EFFECTIVE. The doctors use technological equipment. A special device used by the doctor, delivers a specific, low force adjustment while demonstrating the results of the analysis and post adjustment data. We may also provide graphic visit by visit progress which might be helpful if you have been in an accident and have a legal case, or you are just interested in that kind of stuff. Other techniques utilized are to adjust the spine and nervous system: (diversified, Toggle, Thompson).
4. EXTREMITY ADJUSTMENTS. Dr. Barber is a board-certified Doctor of Chiropractic. With a background in sports, such as AAU regional competitor in martial arts and a two time state champion in AA soccer in California. He has added extremity adjusting to his forte, as these services can be invaluable to the competing athlete who is looking for an edge. Hips, wrists, elbows, feet, knees - these joints can be gently stretched (Fascia Stretch Therapy) to maximize active range of functional motion and prolonged joint health despite heavy use.
Here are a few reasons the cash practice model works to lower fees for so many doctors:
• Most doctors are distracted by unpaid claims and stress associated with a frustrated billing department common in offices due to today’s complicated insurance game. Many doctors perform services wondering if they will ever see payment. There is no place for this type of thinking in any service-centered business. LEFC doctors believe you will enjoy a significantly better experience by eliminating insurance billing.
• LEFC puts its technology into your CARE! Without a billing department we do not need billing services or expensive and sophisticated software necessitating costly updates, upgrades, tutorials, and customer support to keep the office up to date with changes implemented due to the fast changing health insurance system.
• The reports we generate are tailored for only YOU. We believe that the knowledge you can acquire from our diagnostics, besides saving you money for increased technological and better overall quality care, we can further push down overhead costs by way of eliminating the wasteful time necessary to research treatment and diagnosis codes, and writing reports to meet the format your personal health insurance company requires for providers to be paid. In its place, we take care of YOU.
• With lowered overhead, we can reduce our fees to be less than most co-pays. Ask about student, military, EMT, senior (62), and teacher discounts on services.
• With the middleman out of the picture, we can provide you with our full attention to your personalized care - you deserve that!
