I agree, very very shady. After a week there, I feel like I've been had. They run their clinic like a scientology office--you can't escape it, its everywhere. The case manager, who is very strange, does your entire consult and even prescribes treatment. You get very little time with the chiropractor. Now, after the fact, it's apparent the case manager is there to act as a sales person. He makes promises that he can't and shouldn't be and suggested I pay everything up front and commit to 3 months of treatment 3 times a week. One other person here wrote that they were charged $55? For me, an adjustment was $80. I have nothing against scientology. In fact, I even own Ron Hubbards book and it's on my to read list. I think saunas, exercise and a pharmaceutical free lifestyle are integral to a healthy lifestyle. What I have a problem with is the $7000 you need to fork out in the beginning to undergo their ""treatments"". This is also the way they run their practise. They are business people first and health practitioners second. I spent almost $500 for the initial consult which lasted less than an hour. The other hour was spent sitting there listening to a sales pitch. He was very convincing so he does that part of his job well. What infuriates me more is that after 4 treatments, I have felt a little bit worse after each treatment and after the last one, I woke up with a locked spine and a muscle spasm on my left side. I went to my regular chiropractor and he was able to adjust me so that I felt immediate relief. Never have I had an adjustment where I felt worse after. I suggest all stay far far away from this place. He also only uses the activator and does not maually adjust you. The clinic is like a complete joke.
Pros: one of the receptionist is nice
Cons: wait for forever for an appointment, assembly line approach, always trying to sell me more services each time I'm there
