And for those of you that do not have insurance please call our office for more information.
Do you take insurance at your office?

Some of the insurance companies that we are in network with are Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, Aetna, Medicare, Medicaid, Sagamore, as well as several more. If you are unsure if we are in network with your insurance company, please call Cline Chiropractic and Acupuncture at 765-463-3000 and ask one of our friendly staff.
Do the chiropractors work with medical doctors?
We absolutely do work with medical doctors; we have several medical doctors that we refer our patients to if Dr. Cline feels like they need medical attention for their problems. Also, several different medical doctors’ offices refer patients to see Dr. Cline.
Will you suggest exercises or other things I can do?
Yes! Dr. Cline will suggest exercises that you can do at home to help improve your condition. He also sells yoga straps and other things to help you at home too. You will also receive an ice pack on your first visit with us to use at home, compliments of Cline Chiropractic and Acupuncture.
Do I need a referral from a physician or my insurance company?
No you do not, you can call and make an appointment at anytime without a referral. Since we are in network with these insurance companies, they do not require you to have a referral to our clinic.
Will I get adjusted on the first visit?
On your first visit Dr. Cline will do an exam and go over what treatment options he feels would be best for you. You will receive treatment on your first visit, which could be any one of several treatments he offers at our clinic.
Will I have to have X-Rays?
We do not currently take X-Rays at our clinic, if Dr. Cline feels like he needs to have an X-Ray before treatment he will send you to another facility to get those taken. In most cases, unless there has been a traumatic injury, Dr. Cline does not need any X-Rays.
Can someone that has had back surgery see a chiropractor?
Absolutely! I see many post surgical fusions, disectomy, laminectomy, patients. I even have worked on people with Harrington Rods for scoliosis. Yes, the treatments sometimes need to be gentle but they can be very effective relieving pain even if surgery was not very effective.
Why did you become Chiropractors?
I became a chiropractor to help people. It has been a blessing getting to do something that I love that helps so many people while making a decent living. I am truly blessed.
Will I get a prescription for some pain medication?
No you will not get a prescription for pain medications here. Dr. Cline is not a medical doctor and can not prescribe medications of any kind. He will be happy to refer you to a medical doctor in the area that can prescribe medication if he feels like that is what you need.
