Chiropractor for Owasso, OK

Serving Owasso from south Tulsa

Owasso is north of us, and the trip is unusually simple: Highway 169 runs almost directly from Owasso to the 81st Street exit, and the clinic is a couple of minutes east of it on Mingo Road. It is one road for nearly the whole journey.

Owasso is the largest northern suburb of Tulsa, spanning Rogers and Tulsa counties, with a population of around 39,328 as of the 2022 census estimate, up 36 percent on 2010. It was first settled in 1881 in Indian Territory, incorporated in 1904 just before Oklahoma statehood, and chartered as a city in 1972.

What we see from Owasso

The defining feature of Owasso for our purposes is the commute. A large share of residents work in Tulsa and drive Highway 169 twice a day, and that consistent daily sitting is one of the most reliable contributors to low back pain and to the neck and shoulder pattern that comes with a fixed driving position.

Highway 169 also carries heavy traffic at consistent speed, and collisions on it produce exactly the kind of whiplash injury that does not announce itself for a day or two. Owasso patients hurt in a wreck on that stretch are a regular part of our auto injury caseload.

Owasso has grown quickly as a family community, and we see the corresponding range: working parents, school-age children and older residents dealing with the joint stiffness that comes with age.

Getting here from Owasso

Take Highway 169 south to the 81st Street exit, then east to Mingo Road. Our hours run mornings and afternoons Monday to Thursday, which lets Owasso patients book either side of the commute rather than in the middle of it.

What we treat

Most patients come to us for low back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches that start in the neck or an injury from a collision. Treatment usually combines adjustments with massage therapy, and where a disc is involved, spinal decompression.

We treat every generation, including infants, children and expecting mothers, using techniques suited to the patient rather than a scaled down adult adjustment.

Why patients travel to us

The reason most often given is time. The comment that appears in our reviews is about not being rushed, and that is deliberate rather than incidental: a ten minute visit is enough to move a joint and not enough to work out why it keeps going wrong. Patients from outside Tulsa are generally making a deliberate choice about where to go rather than picking the nearest option, and it is worth being the clinic that justifies the drive.

Medical wellness in the same clinic

Alongside chiropractic care, our nurse practitioner provides adult primary care, hormone optimization, weight management, seasonal allergy treatment and wellness injections. For a Owasso patient that means one drive rather than two, and two providers who can see the same picture.

After a car accident

If you have been hurt in a collision, get examined early. Whiplash symptoms typically take a day or more to appear, and a long gap between the crash and the first appointment is what an insurer questions hardest. We bill auto insurance, third-party liability claims and letters of protection, so bring the claim number and the adjuster contact. See our auto injury page for detail.

What a first visit involves

The first appointment is a history and an examination rather than a treatment you were signed up for before you arrived. We ask what hurts, when it started, what makes it worse and what your work physically demands, then test range of motion and check the spine segment by segment. You get the findings explained in plain language, and then a plan with a rough number of visits and a description of what should change.

Sometimes the answer is that chiropractic is not the right treatment. If the examination points to something needing imaging, medication or a specialist, we say so and refer rather than starting a course of care that will not help.

Insurance and payment

We bill insurance, and what your particular plan covers varies a great deal, so call with your card before the first visit and we will help you check. CareCredit is available for treatment a plan does not cover, and we accept the major cards, cash and check. Full detail is on our insurance and payment page.
