How care works here
We’re insurance-friendly and transparent: bring your card and we’ll verify benefits, or use our cash-pay intake if you’re uninsured.

Ask us to check your benefits before you make the drive — we’d rather verify first than surprise you after.
How chiropractic care may help disc problem
Conservative disc care may include directional-preference exercises (movements your exam shows calm the symptoms), traction or flexion-distraction approaches, careful spinal adjustments away from the irritated segment, modalities for pain control, and progressive loading as the nerve quiets. Many disc episodes improve meaningfully over 6 to 12 weeks of structured care. If neurological deficits progress or a genuine conservative trial fails, we coordinate imaging and a surgical consult without wasting your time — knowing when to refer is part of the job.
⚠ When to seek medical care instead
Emergency: saddle numbness, bladder or bowel changes, or rapidly progressive weakness. Prompt referral: foot drop, or deficits that worsen during care. These are checked at every re-evaluation, not just day one.

What patients say
Reno Patients, In Their Own Words
“First time here… Friendly and efficient receptionist, she explained everything in detail. I saw Dr. Bader. Listened to my areas of pain, explained many things and my first adjustment was great. He is also friendly, has good “bedside” manners. They are a hometown health provider.”
“I’ve been seeing Dr. Bader for the last 15 years. He is extremely knowledgeable and has a great bedside manor. The office is very well run… Most insurance is accepted and if it’s not, the cash plan is very reasonable. Walk in’s are acceptable and same day appointments are most likely.”
“Dr Bader is a Super Chiropractor! Palmer educated.”
“They actually work on fixing your issues with adjustments and therapy and get you in and out of the office in a timely manner.”
