Frequently Asked Questions

Cash-pay care means your visit is between you and your doctor, not your insurance company. Insurance-driven clinics are often pushed toward short, double-booked visits and treatment plans built around what a plan will cover. We chose a different path so we can give you a full 60-minute, one-on-one session with a doctor and treat the root cause instead of the billing code. You get unrushed time, a plan built for your body, and clear answers about what care costs before you commit.

We bring chiropractic and physical therapy together under one roof, which is uncommon in this area, and our clinicians are cross-trained so both our Doctor of Chiropractic and our Doctor of Physical Therapy perform dry needling. Every session is a true 60-minute, one-on-one visit with a doctor, with no assistants and no double-booking. We focus on the root cause of a problem rather than the symptom, so you can get back to the sport and the life that matter most to you. You can see the full range of what we offer on our [services](/services/) page.

The name joins two ideas. "Myo" means muscle, and "lab" reflects our precise, measured approach to movement, recovery, and performance. Put together, MYOLAB describes what we do: we study how your body moves and we help you move, recover, and perform better with care that is grounded in evidence rather than guesswork.

We work with two kinds of people who often live in the same household. The first is active adults roughly 40 to 60 who want to keep playing pickleball, golf, tennis, or chasing a finish line, and who want to stay strong as they age. The second is youth and elite athletes who need doctorate-level coaching to train hard and stay safe. Whether you are recovering from pain or building toward a goal, we meet you where you are and we build the plan around you.

Your first visit is a full 60 minutes, one-on-one with a doctor. We listen to your history and your goals, examine how you move, and work to find the root cause of what is bothering you rather than just the area that hurts. From there we walk you through what we found and lay out a clear plan, which may include hands-on treatment, dry needling, rehab exercise, and recovery work. You leave understanding what is going on and what the next steps look like. Learn more about our hands-on approach on our [physical therapy](/services/physical-therapy/) page.

The discovery call is a complimentary 15-minute conversation to see whether MYOLAB is the right fit for you. You tell us what is going on and what you want to accomplish, and we explain how we work and answer your questions, including questions about cost. There is no pressure and no obligation. It is simply a low-friction way to get to know us before you book a full visit. You can [book a free discovery call](/book-online/) whenever you are ready.

Yes. Because we are a cash-pay practice, you can use Health Savings Account and Flexible Spending Account funds toward your care. We can also provide itemized documentation that you may submit to your insurer for possible out-of-network reimbursement, though approval is determined by your individual plan.
