What makes Dr. Yates so unique is that he uses a technique called "MOTION PALPATION" to discover what kind of care you need and just how much. Most of the time without xrays.

This technique allows Dr. Yates to check the spine for what are termed "Fixations" which lead to disfunction, pain or degeneration. The CHART OF SPINAL EFFECTS demonstrates the "somato-vicero" effect these fixations can have on the nervous system.

Restoration of function to these fixated spinal segments can then be re-checked using the same technique thus confirming each visit that spinal motion has been restored.

After you are determined to be "fixation free" check up visits are then scheduled once per month to perform the "motion palpation" study and determine if any "fixations" need to be addressed at that time.

Some patients have gone as long as 4 months without another adjustment / manipulation needed. This is usually associated with patient follow through and keeping their schedule. If you do not follow instructions or keep appointments you should not expect to have this kind of success with care.

Dr. Yates had been active in education also as a part-time instructor for Palmer Chiropractic University system where he taught both pre and postgraduate courses. He continues today to be involved in continuing education through various seminars and workshops.

The practice currently provides chiropractic manipulative therapy, Physiotherapy, Rehab therapy and diagnostic services for anyone suffering from any musculo-skeletal condition or injury.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here are some of the most common questions and concerns that those seeking help for their musculoskeletal problems. After perusing them, if you have any additional questions, please go to the contact us page and send us an email. We will respond to your concerns as soon as possible. Thanks.

Q.People say that once you start going to the chiropractor you have to go the rest of your life, is that true?

A.This is something that most people are concerned about. The answer depends on the chiropractor you are going to. Lenght of time needed to get someone out of pain can be from a few days to a few weeks. The time needed to restore function can be up to 12 weeks depending on the severity or chronicity of the injury.

Q.What about the djustment/manipulation. Does it hurt? What's the cracking sound that you hear when you get adjusted?

A.Fixated joints tend to "pop" or "crack" when adjusted / manipulated. This is restoring the function of the joint and correcting the problem. Some people have said to me that they "crack" their back all the time. My answer to that is. Why would any joint in your body have to be cracked if it were functioning properly. You don't expect your elbow, knee or shoulder to "crack" everytime you move them. Why would you expect your spine to. This is exactly why you need to see Dr. Yates.

Q.I would like to do something about my pain but I don't have insurance or my insurnace doesn't cover much. What can I do?

A.This is not an issue with Dr. Yates. He is a provider for some PPO plans, accepts creditcard payments and has cash plans to fit most budgets.

Most insurnace plans will pay up to 80% of customary charges for an out of network doctor. Dr. Yates suggests that you use a rewards credit card toward your charges. This way, you can get all the points towards your rewards and get money back from your insurer.
