Q3: Do you take my insurance?


We are an in-network provider with many carriers. This list sometimes is changing for various reasons. You can verify if we are in-network by contacting your health insurance and giving them our practice name (Northwood Chiropractic and Wellness) or the provider's name (Dr. Greg Beenken). Each carrier is different you may see one of these names or both.

We do a health insurance benefits analysis for every new client as part of your experience with us and any necessary pre-authorizations!

If we are not in-network with your insurance, then we will bill to your insurance as an out-of-network provider.

Yes, it's used 99.9% of the time. We also use other techniques as well using tools, that may be of benefit to certain patients and is dependent on age, overall health, and preference.


Q9: Can I just walk-in and be seen?

We operate by appointment only for extreme time convenience, you'll never experience an office visit as smooth as ours. However, you are more than welcome to walk-in but get ready for some paperwork, but in all honesty to save your time and energy it's best to contact us or schedule online.


Q10: Do you do the ring dinger?

YouTube has popularized a number of things, the Ring Dinger, is one of them. No, we don't offer the ring dinger or y-axis distraction techniques. 


Q11: Can you do what my last chiropractor did?

There are so many different techniques and approaches to care. When working with people who are transferring their care from a different office we understand their familiarity and may have a strong preference to their adjustments. We do our best to address this. In some cases, it's a yes, we can provide a similar level of care. In most cases, however, the health status of the patient has changed and the same thing they've been doing for a decade is out-dated and there is a better way to address their concerns.
