We are out of network with all insurance providers and we can give you a detailed receipt that you can submit back to your insurance provider for direct reimbursement. We also keep our office visits comparable to what your copay for a specialist is.
We intentionally choose to opt out of accepting insurance as insurance companies dictate the care you receive based on your coverage and sometimes they even hire third parties who have never met you or know anything about your case to determine how you should be treated. We work for you, not the insurance companies and we give you the care that you need so you can get the best results as quickly and effectively as possible.
We do not work with Medicare of Medicaid in any capacity, including supplemental insurance plans or out of network benefits.

Our goal is NOT to have you in the office all the time! If you are coming into the office with a specific structural imbalance, it is our job to recommend and provide you the most effective care, while still meeting you where you’re at with your availability and resources.
If you are in a pain cycle or have an acute issue that needs immediate attention, we start you off with the necessarily corrective care. In order for a sustainable change to happen, this takes time and consistency. Once you’re out of the pain cycle or we both see the physical and neurological improvements happening, you get to graduate from the corrective care to wellness maintenance. Yay!
We believe that chiropractic care is just like any other wellness self-care practices that you have, which are necessary to be consistent, in whatever frequency works for you, in order for you to continue in your optimal state.

Chiropractic care is incredibly diverse, we are not limited to just treating pain!
Through chiropractic care, we work directly with the nervous system. This is THE most important aspect of our practice.
The autonomic nervous system is responsible for all of our body’s processes that happen without us having to think about it. This includes both physical and emotional processes. When the nervous system is dysregulated, or out of balance, the body is not able to perform its physical duties properly or cultivate safety and emotional regulation.
When we are not emotionally regulated, this presents as: high stress levels, constantly scanning your environment for danger, heightened anxiety, the inability to process life events and feeling very low, stuck, disconnected and unresourceful.
This is what keeps most people feeling stuck in stress patterns, both physically and emotionally. When we can relieve and regulate the stress responses, the better your quality of life becomes, the less pain you have and the more functional you become,

An Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractor adjusts ONLY the upper cervical spine with the assistance of an atlas orthogonal instrument.
While we can and do adjust your Atlas (the C1, top cervical bone in your neck), we do not limit our adjustments to just this area.
Within our practice we adjust the full spine for numerous health benefits and effective postural healing.

Chiropractic Biophysics (CBP) is a highly advanced, research-backed technique used to address structural weakness of the spine and improve it. This often presents as a loss of proper curvature in the spine. When there is a loss of curvature, the body overcompensates—causing muscular imbalances, nerve inpingements, inflammation and a disruption in the brain’s communication to the rest of the body.
By receiving corrective chiropractic care (CBP methodology), patients experience the most effective results chiropractic care has to offer, including long-term results, avoiding surgery and/or other medical interventions and symptoms relieved much faster than the common types of adjusting seen in other clinics.
Dr Johanna is one of a few, and the only female, in the Tampa Bay area who upholds her CBP certification.
