What should I expect on my first visit to Maryville Spine & Laser?

On your first visit to Maryville Spine & Laser Chiropractic Clinic, our doctor will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine if our specialized care can help with your specific condition. We believe in transparency: if we can't help, we'll let you know directly. If we can, we'll outline a clear path forward for your pain relief and wellness journey.

Do you accept my insurance? (Or: What are your payment options?)

We are in-network with most major insurance companies. After our doctor completes your diagnosis and we develop a personalized treatment plan for your condition, our team will gladly discuss your specific insurance coverage and out-of-pocket costs. Our goal is to make chiropractic care and neuropathy treatment accessible for our Maryville, TN patients.

How long does neuropathy treatment typically take to see results?

Results from neuropathy treatment can vary for each patient, but many experience noticeable improvement quite quickly, often seeing immediate changes after just 2 to 3 visits. For significant nerve regeneration, it does take time. We generally observe a 70% to 80% reduction in symptoms in most patients within nine weeks. Following in-clinic treatment, a medical device is often used at home for 9 to 12 months to support sustained results.

Can chiropractic help with more than just back pain?

Absolutely! While chiropractic care is renowned for back pain relief, it's an incredibly versatile tool in our holistic approach to health. At Maryville Spine & Laser, we use chiropractic adjustments as one of many methods to address a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including neck pain, headaches, sciatica, joint pain, and more.

What is Dr. Sanford's philosophy on long-term patient health?

Dr. Sanford's philosophy on long-term patient health emphasizes active patient involvement. He believes that 80-90% of lasting wellness is driven by daily lifestyle choices, particularly diet and nutrition, complemented by regular exercise and sufficient sleep. It's the consistent positive actions you take each day that truly make a long-term difference in achieving optimal health and a higher quality of life.
