Most clients feel relief immediately after their first visit, and continue to get relief as they continue care. Healing, like all things in life is not a straightforward, linear process, and the presence and experience of symptoms may ebb and flow throughout care. We will create a personalized care plan tailored to your needs and goals and work with you along the way to not only get you relief from symptoms, but also more importantly, give you the ability to experience MORE in life.
We don’t specifically treat symptoms, we are simply removing interference in the nervous system so that the body’s innate intelligence can more efficiently and effectively work to heal you.

Healing can only take place in two ways, the replacement of cells or the repair of cells. YOUR BODY is the only thing that can heal you. The only thing a doctor or “healer” of any kind can do is help to remove obstructions to this innate process that your body is made to do. Chiropractors work to remove interference in your nervous system so that your body can more effectively and efficiently do what it is made to do. Read more about chiropractic here. (Link to about Chiro page) However we do see a large range of symptoms clear up after our clients start receiving regular care in our office.
A typical adjustment appointment lasts about 30-45 minutes from the time you are checked in to the time you are leaving. Everyone is different, and sometimes adjustments can run longer. A first visit is a much more in depth appointment, and can last up to 2 hours. Read more about our first visit experience here. (link to first visit page)
The short answer is no. We do not force any manipulations to your body, we only adjust your body where and when it is ready to be adjusted. We practice a gentle form of chiropractic known as NetworkSpinal. NetworkSpinal involves gentle touches to the body that work to basically inform the body where and how to adjust its structure and function. Essentially, we are teaching the body to get itself unstuck. If the body can get itself unstuck then it gains the wisdom to do it again in the future if necessary. If the chiropractor’s body gets a patient’s unstuck then it is the chiropractor that walks away with the wisdom thus only providing temporary relief by “cracking” your back. You can read more about this modality here (link to what is network page).
Yes. We work both on children and babies.
Yes we do.
We are communal creatures, so when we engage in things, such as healing, in a group rather than as an individual, we have the power to make larger shifts and gains in our healing. The electromagnetic field of our heart extends 20 feet outside of our bodies, so when those around us make a positive shift, it also opens us up to make progress, and when we make progress and shift, we also work to support everyone around us.
Wear comfortable clothing that is preferably loose around the neck so that we can accurately feel what is going on. If you are wearing a dress, we may drape a blanket over you to ensure that you are not exposed in any way.
Initial intake appointments that include adjustments are $260. Book Here. Find out more about our First Visit Appointments Here.
After initial appointments, a customized care plan will be created for you and this will dictate your pricing moving forward. The price per visit outside of a care plan is $84 an adjustment, however, our doctor recommended care plans bring the cost per adjustment down significantly (25% – 30%).
Our relationship is with you and you alone, and we do not work directly with third party payers. When a third party payer is involved with the doctor patient relationship they dictate care which is not beneficial to you or the doctor. Although we do not accept insurance, many people do pay utilizing their HSA or FSA accounts. We can also provide you with billing statements to submit to your insurance for possible reimbursement or credit towards deductibles, but we will not bill any insurance companies directly.
I left Colorado feeling relaxed and great! I continue to use the techniques Dr Tad taught me to help get/stay healthy. (Unfortunately, at this time, there are no chiropractors in my area that use the same system. Thank you Dr Tad for checking/searching for me.) When I visit again, I’ll definitely come back.
Thank you Dr Tad!
From the moment you walk in, Marsha at the front desk sets the tone with her warmth and kindness, my daughter and I always look forward to chatting with her.
Dr. Tad has created more than just a chiropractic office; he’s built a true community where practice members feel seen, heard, and supported. The sense of connection here is rare and deeply appreciated. Dr. Tad is a model of excellence in our profession, and I aspire to bring the same level of mastery, community, and care to my own practice!
Each session leaves me not only with relief in my body, but also a greater sense of ease, connection, and alignment within myself. I’m grateful for the genuine care and presence he brings to his work and to every person he serves.
10/10 highly suggest!
