Cheap chiropractic deals on Facebook?

Are cheap chiropractic deals on Facebook worth the money to people seeking a solution to their pain or health concerns? Well, yes and no. Often, it's a great way to introduce prospective patients to a chiropractor's excellent services without a big upfront cost. If the chiropractor offers a low entry fee to entice new patient's and then recommends a fair and reasonable treatment plan to resolve a case; then yes, it is a good deal for everyone involved.

However, please be aware of chiropractors that offer cheap deals upfront only to frighten and bully you into an unreasonably expensive and protracted treatment regimen. These chiropractors do an exam and take x-rays for the sole purpose of motivating you into a panic. They tell you things like, "if you don't get on my treatment plan, you'll be in a wheel chair within 5 years." Many of my patients have reported getting that line from previous experiences. Diagnostic testing like x-rays should be clinically necessary and benefit the patient and not the doctor's "bottom line." A Chiropractic treatment plan should be of a reasonable cost and duration that is fair and adequate for your particular health concern.
