Get to know us more:

Maximized Chiropractic, Best Bismarck chiropractor
  • Absolutely! We love seeing your kids and family at our practice and making sure your time here is as fun and enjoyable as possible. There are giant train tables, a tree fort, a climbing gym, dinosaurs hiding everywhere and a slide where kids are encouraged to play. We have a fully stocked snack bar for those times when the kids are getting hangry and a prize machine when they are done for the day.

    Whenever you are here you’re in a safe space and your kids are welcome to run around. They are always accepted for who they are. Our team members are happy to hang out with them while one of our doctors talks with you or for you to get time to relax on one of our hydromassage beds!

  • Somewhere along the line we all became very impatient with our health care. We want things fixed yesterday, in one visit, and we want someone else to pay for it. I get it, I can be impatient too, but healing takes time. That means you or your child will likely be seeing us 2-3 times a week until your family is meeting the goals you came in for. I would love it if I could go to the gym one time and have six-pack abs for life. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work that way.

    Our office is NOT a “someone told me chiropractic could help my child so I’ll have them adjusted one time to see if it works” kind of office. Let me spoil the ending for you, it doesn’t work that way.

    BUT if you are looking for a place that will truly take care of you and your kids, help your entire family reach a higher state of wellness, and will be with you every step of your journey then this is the place for you!

  • Yes! We are in network with BCBS and Sanford health plan.

    Unfortunately, chiropractic care for anything other than musculoskeletal pain is NOT covered by your health insurance provider. That means unless your child is old enough to say “Hey mom, my neck really hurts” or something similar, they will not cover it (even then they will cover very little). Because of this we are not able to bill insurance for anything other than pain. “But my other chiropractor accepted my insurance for my baby!” Yes, we hear that sometimes. This is being done against insurance regulations, is unethical, and those offices are risking their insurance status by doing so. We see a very high volume of children and choose to play by all the rules. Thankfully, care in our office is extremely affordable.

  • For adults with BCBS or Sanford health insurance we are in-network and is different for everyone depending on your plan.

    For kids (since insurance does not cover chiropractic care) or adults without insurance it is $200 for the initial visit and $55 for each visit after that.

  • Ahh, to be in your shoes. The first visit to our office is a pretty magical day. This is first time we dig deep to really get to know you. We want to know your goals, dreams, and what makes you special. This typically takes anywhere from 60-90 minutes.

  • We use this day to get a better idea of how long it will take to reach your goals, how much it will cost, and how often we recommend to see us.

    First we will talk about how life currently is for you or your child. This will help us get a baseline and to figure out healthy goals for your family. Then we will conduct a thorough nervous system exam which includes scans. After that is complete we often begin care this visit with your first chiropractic adjustment.

  • This visit is slightly shorter than the first time you are in our office. We go over the results of your scans and exam together during this visit. Our team used the information we discussed on our first visit together to create a plan of care. We will go over this with you to show how we expect things to go and how long results could take. This includes how much it will cost and our recommendations for how often to see us.

  • These visits take as long or as little as you would like! The best chiropractic adjustment in the world only takes a few minutes to deliver. Outside of that we are available to answer all your questions and help with whatever stage of life you are going through. You will also have the option to use a massage bed while we watch your kids every time you are here!

  • In our office we utilize technology to help us get a better idea of how we can help your family. For kids that are too squirmy to sit still we use a thermal scan on their spines. This helps us understand how much stress is on their nervous system. For older kids and adults that can sit still we also use a surface EMG. This will help show us patterns of muscle tension. Lastly, we use HRV to show us how much stress your body is under. All of these are very simple, painless, safe for kids and pregnancy, and will help get us get to the root cause of any health concerns!

  • Roughly every 12 visits to our office we take extra time to re-scan you. We talk about what your original goals were when you came into our office and how your progress is coming along. We use this time to adjust your plan of care to make sure we continue to move forward!

What’s it like for pregnancy?

Bismarck pediatric, family, and prenatal chiropractor
  • Chiropractic care before and during pregnancy can help your body prepare for the journey of parenthood. It will help prepare your body for labor and delivery by making sure your pelvis is positioned optimally allowing your baby the best chance at positioning themselves properly and coming out easily. Over 98% of deliveries from patients in our office end up vaginal (compared to only about 60% nationally) and all our moms tell us their birthing experience was made better by the chiropractic care and support they were given in our office. This means less discomfort, shorter labors, less interventions, and more happy babies. Seeing a chiropractor for pregnancy is one of the best decisions you can make!

  • The Webster technique is the “gold standard” of chiropractic care during pregnancy. That means the best chiropractor for pregnancy uses this technique. It will ensure your pelvis is in the optimal position and will help facilitate a healthy pregnancy and delivery. Make sure you are seeing a chiropractor that has devoted their careers to this stage of your life. This will make sure you are getting the best tailored care for your pregnancy and will help both you and your baby live happy and healthy!

  • Yes! Chiropractic care for pregnant moms can be done comfortably with pillows that support you, even when you’re unable to lay on your belly. These adjustments are every gentle. They don’t involve any added twisting or stress on the pelvis. It has been shown to be extremely safe and effective prenatal care. Seeing a chiropractor for pregnancy is one of the best decisions you can make!

  • Seeing a chiropractor for pregnancy even before you are pregnant is the best time! The sooner you start to prepare your body the easier it will be. We are here to support you physically but also emotionally during all of these stages. We are here to answer questions and offer guidance during these new and exciting times.

  • The postpartum period can come with A LOT of hormones, body changes, stress, anxiety, and emotions. Along with taking care of a new baby, you need to take care of yourself too! Adjustments during the postpartum period will help your nervous system adapt to the transition it’s going through. The quality of your experience postpartum can set the tone for many years to come!

What’s it like for babies & kids?

Bismarck pediatric, family, and prenatal chiropractor
  • It is safe and effective to see a chiropractor for kids as soon as possible. This often means we are the first stop after leaving the hospital (or home) after your new baby is born. All of our kids were adjusted for the first time when they were only a couple minutes old! This will help make sure any stress from birth or pregnancy is minimized and start the path to your child living a healthy life.

  • The confusing answer to that question is both none and all.

    We aren’t treating symptoms or being magic fixes for anything. The only thing regular chiropractic adjustments do is make sure your child’s nervous system is working at 100%. But what does their nervous system do? Does it control their digestion? Their immune system? Their growth and development? Their sleep? Their hormones? The answer to all those and more is YES! So when your child has a healthy foundation through a nervous system that is working at its’ best, we often see many changes.

    These can include:

    -easier breastfeeding

    -better sleep

    -better digestion

    -less reflux

    -less gas

    -less colds/ear infections

    -calmer and more focused kids

    -easier to adapt to new situations/environments

    -a million other things!

  • From stressed out pregnancy to a delivery that maybe didn’t go as planned, your new baby has already been through a lot. Their tiny and delicate spines are developing and their nervous system is growing like crazy. This stage is THE most important time of life to see a pediatric chiropractor. It can help make sure your child starts their life with the best foundation possible.

  • We get this question all the time. Our office usually has kids literally bouncing off the walls so it is easy to think we ONLY are a chiropractor for kids, but we see EVERYONE! We chose to specialize in kids, pregnancy, and family life. This means that if you are in that stage of life you will fit in very well here. If you are someone who doesn’t like kids then you probably won’t be comfortable here but we would happily see you.

  • This is one of the most common concerns of a parent who has not been to a chiropractor yet. You’ve seen the crazy YouTube videos and think that’s what happens to kids. It’s absolutely not! The adjusting techniques we use does not involve any twisting, popping, or cracking. Depending on the age, you might not even be able to tell we did anything! This is why we always recommend you take your child to a chiropractor that specializes in pediatrics. They will have CACCP after their names.

  • Somewhere along the line we all became very impatient with our health care. We want things fixed yesterday, in one visit, and we want someone else to pay for it. I get it, I can be impatient too, but healing takes time. That means your child will likely be seeing us 2-3 times a week until your family is meeting the goals you came in for. Everyone has a plan catered specifically to them. I would love it if I could go to the gym one time and have six-pack abs for life. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work that way.

    Our office is NOT a “someone told me chiropractic could help my child so I’ll have them adjusted one time to see if it works” kind of office. Let me spoil the ending for you, it doesn’t work that way.

    BUT if you are looking for a place that will truly take care of you and your kids, help your entire family reach a higher state of wellness, and will be with you every step of your journey then this is the place for you!
