Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers from Dr. Croskey & the Empower Sports Chiropractic team. If you don’t see your question, ask us. Our team is happy to help.

Treatment & Approach

Can you help with my injury?

Very likely. We treat head-to-toe issues involving joints, muscles, and nerves, from sprains, strains, and tendinopathies to post-surgery return-to-sport care. Every plan starts with a movement and mobility assessment tailored to your body and goals.
We’ll start with a movement and mobility assessment, then build a plan that fits your goals and your sport.

Will it work for me?

We don’t take insurance. We’re a cash‑based clinic, so we can give you longer, one‑on‑one sessions without insurance limitations. You can use HSA/FSA. We’ll provide an itemized receipt you can use for your records or reimbursement programs.

What is a chiropractic adjustment, really?

•Chiropractic & PT: Initial exam + treatment ≈ 45 minutes; follow‑ups 30–45 minutes.

•Massage therapy: 60 / 90 / 120-minute options.
Plenty of time to assess, treat, and coach, without rushing.

When do you use shockwave?

Primarily for chronic tendon and joint issues — foot, ankle, knee, hip, shoulder, and elbow. It boosts blood flow and tissue remodeling for faster healing.

Do you coordinate with my coach or ATC?

Yes, if you’d like us to. We speak the language of training and rehab and can align your recovery with practice and performance goals.

Will it hurt? What will I feel after?

Adjustments feel like a precise release. Soft-tissue work can be intense but focused. Expect mild “workout soreness” for a day or two, then improved mobility.

I’m busy. How much time am I committing?

Most patients see noticeable improvement within 12 visits or fewer. We combine evaluation, treatment, and coaching in every session for faster progress.

Pricing, Payment & Policies

Do you take insurance?

We’re a cash-based clinic — no insurance billing. This lets us deliver longer, one-on-one sessions without restrictions. You can use HSA/FSA funds, and we provide itemized receipts for your records.

What’s your refund policy?

Completed sessions can’t be refunded, but if there’s a billing concern, we’ll review and correct any errors right away.

It’s expensive. Why is cash-based worth it?

Because you’re paying for precision: coordinated care from a sports chiropractor (Georgia Tech Football team chiropractor), Doctor of Physical Therapy, and licensed massage therapist, all in one place. Most patients need fewer visits and recover faster.

Do you offer warranties or guarantees?

No “cure” guarantees. Biology isn’t binary. What we do guarantee is a thorough evaluation, clear plan, and active adjustments if progress stalls.
