If you’re searching for this, you’re probably hurting, and you’d like to know what you’re walking into before you book. That’s a fair thing to want. Here is the straight answer on what chiropractic care costs at Riverside Chiropractic, how payment works, and how to judge whether the money is well spent.
What a First Visit Costs at Riverside Chiropractic
A first visit at Riverside is $97. It’s more than a quick adjustment. Dr. Ben starts with an assessment: your health history, how you move, and a hands-on exam to find the joint restrictions and muscle tension that are actually driving your pain. He explains what he finds in plain language before any treatment begins, and when it’s appropriate, you can be treated the same day.
That assessment-first approach is the reason we charge for a proper first visit. You leave knowing what’s going on, what Dr. Ben recommends, and roughly how long it should take. If you’d like a walkthrough of the whole appointment, read what to expect at your first chiropractic appointment.
What Follow-Up Visits Cost
Follow-up visits are $55. They’re shorter than the first visit and focus on treatment, checking how you’re responding, and adjusting the plan as you improve. At set points along the way, Dr. Ben also does progress exams, so you can see measured changes in how you move and feel instead of guessing whether care is working.
What Affects Your Total Cost
The honest answer to “how much will I spend in total?” is that it depends. A recent flare-up of low back pain usually needs fewer visits than a problem you’ve lived with for years. Your age, activity level, work setup, and how your body responds all play a part. So does the home exercise program: patients who do their rehab between visits tend to need less hands-on care overall. Dr. Ben sends your exercises as private YouTube videos so you can follow along at home.
After your assessment, Dr. Ben will tell you what he expects and why. There’s no pressure. If the progress exams show something isn’t working, you’ll hear about it. Learn more about Dr. Ben and the team, or see the full range of chiropractic services in London Ontario.
How Payment Works
We accept cash, debit, Visa, and Mastercard. We do not offer direct billing, so you pay at the time of your visit. We provide a receipt each time so you can submit it to your extended health benefits (EHB) plan yourself. Many plans reimburse part of chiropractic care, but coverage varies a lot. Before your first visit, it’s worth asking your provider how much you’re covered for per visit, what your yearly maximum is, and whether your plan has any requirements of its own.
OHIP does not cover chiropractic visits for most adults, so private coverage or paying directly is the usual route. We also do not accept WSIB claims, motor vehicle accident (MVA) claims, or litigation cases.
Is Chiropractic Care Worth the Cost?
Only you can answer that, but here is what we’d look at. Are you getting a real assessment, or a quick adjustment and a handshake? Are you told what’s wrong, in words you understand? Is anyone measuring whether you’re getting better? Those are the questions that separate care that’s worth paying for from care that just keeps you coming back.
