Research has consistently shown that chiropractic care is a cost-effective form of healthcare. Studies show that patients whose care is initiated by a chiropractor tend to have lower overall treatment costs compared to those who start with other providers for the same conditions. Chiropractic care can also help reduce the need for more expensive interventions such as surgery, long-term medication use, and emergency room visits. At Full Potential Chiropractic, our new patient exam is $49 and we direct bill most major insurance providers so you pay less out of pocket. Most extended health plans in Alberta cover chiropractic care.
