“Factors in finding a local chiropractor near you”
When you are trying to find a local chiropractor near you, there are a few factors to consider. We believe it is important to find an office that has experience with your condition, accepts your insurance. I think it also needs services that you are looking for, and has hours that it your busy schedule. Once you consider these factors, finding a local chiropractor near you will become easier to figure out.
As a result, many things to consider may also include the types of chiropractic adjustment techniques and services that the chiropractic office offers.
Type of chiropractic adjustment styles
Dr. Allen Conrad is a graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic, generally regarded as the best chiropractic school in the world. Dr. Conrad was trained in the diagnosis and treatment of spinal, neuromuscular and biomechanical conditions. Our office helps patients with back pain, shoulder injuries, and many forms of muscle and tendon injuries. We have been in practice over 23 years, and offers the most popular types of chiropractic adjustments.
Consequently, these techniques that we use include:
*Diversified Technique
*Activator Technique
*Thompson Drop Technique
*Palmer Package Technique
*Gonstead Technique
*Flexion Distraction Spinal Decompression Therapy for Herniated Discs
Any local chiropractor choices should include what style of chiropractic technique you prefer, and ask the office if they offer this chiropractic technique. Montgomery County Chiropractic Center has been serving the North Wales PA region for low force techniques to improve range of motion and improve spinal mobility.
Type of chiropractic health insurance accepted
Insurance may also be a determining factor in your search for a local Doctor of Chiropractic. Cost may also be a factor, so it’s important to find a chiropractor that is In-Network for your health insurance. This way you will be able to receive care at the lowest cost, as Out of Network providers may have higher fees as part of their provider agreement. Our staff at Montgomery County Chiropractic Center can verify your coverage before treatment, so you are familiar with your coverage and how many visits you are allowed per year with your health insurance plan. Health insurance plans which our office accepts for chiropractic care include:
*Aetna HMO
*Independence Blue Cross PPO

*Blue Shield PPO
*Independence Administrators PPO
*Worker’s Compensation Accidents
*Keystone Health Plan East HMO
*United Healthcare PPO
*Merck Aetna PPO
*Meritain PPO
*United Healthcare PPO
Hours of operation
Finding a chiropractic office that fits your schedule is another factor that should fit into your decision to find a local chiropractor. Our office is open 7 days a week, with morning and evening hours. Many patients in the Lansdale and Blue Bell Pa area find our office hours very convenient, as many other chiropractors are closed on nights and weekends. When an accident happens and your throw your back out, you can’t wait 2-3 days to get treated. We will do our best to call you back as soon as possible, and you can contact us with a question through our website “contact us” page 24 hours a day.

For instance, you may first be interested in pain relief. Later, your goals may include improving strength and muscle endurance.

Online Social Media Reviews
Another helpful thing to consider is reviewing online reviews to find a chiropractor. It should be only a part of the search process for finding a chiropractor near you, but it still could be helpful to see what other patients have thought about the chiropractor. Google, Yelp and Facebook are widely used these days, so consider taking a look at patient reviews when deciding what local chiropractor to choose. We hope this has been helpful in deciding how to find a local chiropractor, and how to make an informed decision on what questions to ask.
