  About the Cooperative Fee System

We have had the good fortune of being able to offer our practice members regular chiropractic care without financial obstacle for more than a few years now. While others have failed in this type of practice, we continue to flourish thanks to all of you who honor your agreement to be regular with your care (no less than 1 visit per week), handle your financial obligations on the first visit of the week and, most importantly, refer others. A system such as ours depends upon a volume of people following the rules so that it may continue.

This means that if you are utilizing the Cooperative Fee System and miss a week or more of care, you are still responsible for payment for those weeks. It is a flat, weekly fee for care, whether you are here once that week, ten times that week or no times that week.

We recognize that some may not be interested or willing to fulfill the three obligations of the Cooperative Fee System. That’s OK. We are committed to getting care to everyone. For those individuals, our regular stated fee of $40 per visit, per person applies.

We do not offer the option of having your spine checked at inconsistent intervals and maintain access to the Cooperative Fee System. It is also unfair to those individuals and families who do honor their agreement with us.

Any fee system that creates an obstacle to you and your family getting your spine checked regularly is a bad fee system. Similarly, any fee system that does not allow the provider of the service to earn a living is also a bad fee system.

We will continue offering the Cooperative Fee System as long as each of you utilizing it continue to honor your agreement. We offer this for you, not for us. It would be very easy for us to do as other chiropractors do by charging $40, $50, $60 or more per visit, see fewer people and have a far greater income. We would rather see more families at affordable fees so that we can change the world, one spine at a time. Because, if you’re not out to change the world everything else is just Mickey Mouse!
