What should I expect on my first visit?

Lasting 45-60 minutes, the first visit is one of the most important here at Metro Movement Chiropractic and Rehabilitation in Urbandale. You will go through a detailed history and exam to determine exactly where your pain is coming from. Depending on the needs of the patient, the examination process may consist of: functional evaluation, movement assessment, orthopedic assessment, neurological assessment, soft tissue palpation/assessment, or joint motion palpation.

What should I expect during treatment?

Follow up chiropractic appointments are 30-60 minutes in length of 1-on-1 treatment doing everything possible to speed up care. Most patients start noticing changes within their first day of treatment, and it’s very rare that people aren’t starting to notice improvements after just 3-4 visits.

What makes you different than any other chiropractic clinics?

Differing from traditional chiropractic clinics in Urbandale, Johnston, Grimes, and the rest of the Des Moines metro, we don’t make you come back multiple times a week for months on end, wasting both time and money. We quickly identify the underlying issue, provide hands on treatment, and educate you on how you can be an active participant in your recovery process.

Will I have to keep coming back the rest of my life?

The short answer is, no, we're not that type of chiropractic clinic. We work together to develop an effective treatment plan that is results driven and provides long term-relief. One that is also cost-effective and gets you back to doing the things you love in as few visits as possible. We understand that seeing a chiropractor costs money, and we want you to invest in yourself and in a provider and who helps you get quick results and keeps more money in your pocket.

Do you take insurance?

One of our most frequently asked questions! We are enrolled and are in network with Wellmark Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO. That being said, our self-pay rates for those with other insurance are meant to be fair, competitive, and affordable for all in the Urbandale, Johnston, Grimes, and Des Moines area.

Payment - Can I use my HSA or Flex Spending Card?

Of course. Along with HSA and FSA cards, we accept all forms of payment including cash, check, debit & credit cards. An itemized receipt (Superbill) can be given for any out-of-network benefits or verification of chiropractic services provided.
