Medicare patients: Part B covers medically necessary spinal manipulation — we’ll explain exactly what that means for your visits. Calling from South Reno? 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 neck pain
Care may combine gentle, specific cervical adjustments — with lower-force options for patients who prefer them — plus soft-tissue work, physiotherapy modalities and posture-focused exercises. Many patients find meaningful relief over a short course of care; progress is re-measured rather than assumed.
⚠ When to seek medical care instead
Seek medical care promptly for neck pain with fever or unexplained weight loss, after significant trauma (car crash, fall from height — get imaging first), with progressive arm weakness or clumsiness, or a sudden severe 'worst-ever' headache. These are screened at every new-patient exam.

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.”
