How much for treatment?
Treatment sessions are time based, and typically last 30 minutes. In that block of time Dr. Dunaway will use any treatment options that is appropriate for the presenting condition as long as the patient is comfortable with that treatment option. 30-minute sessions are $65. For New Patients, the first session can run a bit longer due to the need for an in-depth history a proper assessment. The price will be based on a 45- or 60-minute initial session based on how many different problem areas are being assessed.

What Treatment Options Are Available?
Dr Dunaway utilizes a combination of therapies. This includes Chiropractic Adjustments, Active Release Techniques, Dry Needling, Cupping, Kinesio Taping, and Scraping techniques. There are no individual pricing for these therapies, as the upfront cost of the session includes anything that can be done in our block of time. All of these are administered in an attempt to kickstart the process of decreasing pain and increasing range of motion in order to allow the patient to begin a routine of corrective exercises that will help maintain mobility and strengthen areas to support this improved movement. These exercises will be provided by Dr Dunaway which are included in the session price as well.
Do You Accept Insurance?
Do You Accept Insurance?
ChiroStrength is Self-Pay practice. The reason for this is twofold. First, ChiroStrength is a Solo Practice. Dr. Dunaway is the only employee. If you receive an E-mail, Text, or talk on the phone, you’ll be communicating with Dr. Dunaway directly. Because of this, there is little time for additional filing, follow up calls on claims, and the additional paperwork required to run an insurance-based practice. Additionally, the unfortunate fact is that insurance companies do not reimburse Chiropractors for the majority of Dr. Dunaway’s care. Because the majority of time spent with Dr. Dunaway involves soft tissue care and exercise education (not covered by the majority of insurance companies), Dr. Dunaway chosen to put individualized patient care before insurance reimbursement.
Do you offer treatment plans?
Do you offer treatment plans?
For the vast majority of patients at ChiroStrength there are no traditional treatment plans. There are no crystal balls in Healthcare, and different people respond differently. After the initial session, we will have a better idea of what the immediate next steps are for follow up treatment, but a lot of that depends on how the patient responds to the at home exercises suggestions. Dr Dunaway will do everything in his power to help you reach your goals whether that be pain free movement, or a return to sport/activity. For a few individuals (mainly post-surgical patients), we offer a 12-session program where the majority of the time spent is progressing through a strengthening program to build confidence with exercise and recovery strategies.
