​

How is River Forest Health & Wellness different from a typical chiropractic and Physical therapy clinics?

We combine chiropractic care with movement assessment, rehabilitation, acupuncture, massage therapy, and other evidence-based treatments. Patients receive one-on-one care and an individualized plan based on their examination, daily activities, movement patterns, and goals.

​

Do you offer physical therapy or physiotherapy?

We provide physiotherapy-based rehabilitation focused on restoring mobility, reducing pain, improving strength, and helping patients function more confidently. Treatment may include corrective exercise, movement retraining, manual therapy, education, and self-management strategies.

​

What is McKenzie Therapy?

The McKenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy, commonly called MDT, is an assessment-based approach for spinal and extremity problems. The provider evaluates how repeated movements and positions affect your symptoms, then uses those findings to develop an individualized treatment and self-management plan.

​

What is Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization?

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization, or DNS, is a rehabilitation approach based on developmental movement patterns. It is used to improve breathing mechanics, core stability, joint control, posture, and coordinated movement.

​

Do you provide acupuncture and dry needling?

Yes. River Forest Health & Wellness offers acupuncture and dry needling as part of its treatment options. Your provider will determine whether either technique is appropriate for your symptoms, health history, and treatment goals.

​

Do you offer prenatal chiropractic care?

Yes. We provide gentle prenatal chiropractic care, including the Webster Technique. Treatment is intended to support pelvic and musculoskeletal function and help manage pregnancy-related discomfort. It is not a substitute for prenatal medical care from an obstetric provider or midwife.

​

Do you treat children and teenagers?

Yes. River Forest Health & Wellness provides gentle, age-appropriate  care for infants, children, and teenagers. Care may support healthy movement, development, and recovery from injuries.

​

Is care available in Spanish?

Yes. Spanish-speaking care is available to help patients communicate clearly with their provider and better understand their evaluation, treatment plan, and home-care recommendations. Contact the office when scheduling to confirm availability.

​

Does River Forest Health & Wellness accept insurance?

We are in-network with many PPO plans, including Aetna PPO, Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO, Blue Choice PPO, Blue Cross Blue Shield Federal, Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare PPO, UMR, and Golden Rule plans. Coverage varies by plan, so patients should contact the clinic and their insurer to verify current benefits before treatment.

​

River Forest Health & Wellness does not accept Medicare and most medical supplemental plans. Its providers are non-participating with Medicare and cannot bill Medicare or Medicare supplemental plans. Cigna may be billed out of network when permitted by the patient’s plan. Massage therapy is private pay and is not billed to insurance.

​

Do you offer self-pay treatment?

Yes. Private-pay options are available, including for massage therapy and services that may not be covered by insurance. Contact the office for current pricing and information about your specific treatment.

​

Do I have to receive chiropractic manipulation?

No. Chiropractic manipulation is only one of many treatment options available at River Forest Health & Wellness. If manipulation is not appropriate for you—or you simply prefer not to receive it—that is completely fine. Your comfort and preferences are important to us.

​

Depending on your needs, your care may include physiotherapy-based rehabilitation, corrective exercise, gentle mobilization, soft-tissue therapy, acupuncture, dry needling, massage therapy, McKenzie Therapy, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization, shockwave therapy, or other techniques. We will discuss your options and create a personalized treatment plan with you.

​

What should I expect at my first appointment?

Your first appointment generally begins with a discussion of your symptoms, medical history, daily activities, and goals. Your provider will perform an appropriate examination and movement assessment, explain the findings, and recommend a personalized care plan. The exact evaluation and treatment will depend on your condition and the service you schedule.

​​
