Can you share the story behind North Star Chiropractic and what inspired you to start your own practice?
North Star Chiropractic was created out of my personal experience with chiropractic care. As a student-athlete wrestler at Olivet College, I dealt with injuries that affected my performance and daily life. Chiropractic care helped me get back to doing what I loved—stronger and healthier than before. That experience lit a fire in me to help others function at their best as well. I chose to start North Star Chiropractic in the Lansing area because it’s home for me, and I want to serve this community with the same care and attention that made such a difference in my life.
What types of care or conditions do you commonly treat, and who can benefit from chiropractic care at North Star Chiropractic?
We commonly help patients with back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, and postural issues—but chiropractic care goes beyond just aches and pains. We also work with individuals dealing with digestive issues, nervous system-related symptoms, sleep problems and extremity problems like shoulder, knee, wrist, and ankle discomfort. Because the nervous system controls everything in the body, correcting spinal misalignments can lead to improvements in a wide range of conditions.
You specialize in the Gonstead Technique, which is unique in this area—can you explain what that is and how it benefits your patients?
The Gonstead Technique is a highly specific, thorough approach to chiropractic care. We use detailed analysis—including full spine X-rays to locate the root cause of the problem, not just the symptoms. Along with the detailed analysis we can tailor the force of the adjustment based on the patient’s size, age, and comfort level—making it safe and effective for everyone, from children to seniors.
What ages do you typically work with, and do you treat teens with sports injuries or other active lifestyles?
We see people of all ages—from newborns to older adults. Yes, we do. We help with common sports-related issues like joint pain, sprains, muscle tightness, and spinal misalignments. Our goal is to not only help them recover and be pain free but also prevent future injuries and perform at their highest potential.
What makes your approach or patient experience different from other chiropractic offices?
Our approach is all about precision, education, and building trust. Every care plan is tailored to the individual after a detailed assessment. We take the time to explain everything so patients understand what’s going on and how we’re addressing it. The Gonstead Technique sets us apart, but so does our commitment to making every patient feel heard, respected, and cared for like family.
Are there any current specials, new patient offers, or community events you’re excited to share?
We are currently working on planning a Family Fun Day sometime this summer which will include cool cars and trucks including police car and a fire truck as well. Follow our social media pages for updates that will be coming out shortly.
Do you accept insurance, or is your office cash pay only? Do you offer any membership or package options?
We are a cash-based practice, which allows us to keep care transparent, and personalized care to each patient without insurance restrictions. We do have a few ways to pay for care, one of them is paying for your care plan up front and you get a discount for that option and another is a monthly plan as well. We also can give super bills out to patients at the end of each month for them to submit to their insurance for reimbursement based on their coverage policies.
What can a first-time client expect during their initial visit, and how can someone schedule an appointment?
At your first visit, we’ll take the time to get to know you and your health goals. You’ll receive a full consultation, full chiropractic exam and full spine X-rays. Once we’ve reviewed everything, we’ll go over the findings with you and create a personalized care plan. We keep things comfortable and informative every step of the way.
To schedule, you can call us directly, book online through our website, or send us a message on social media—we’ll get you set up right away.
