Dear Patients,
Please take the time to read this important newsletter from Spine Arts Center to learn about our latest updates and changes as we celebrate a decade in our Springfield office. Our 10 years here in Northern Virginia have been wonderful years doing what we love to do, caring for you, our patients.
Dr. Lim has recently completed her certification in Nutrition Response Testing which provides her with an advanced comprehensive method for evaluating and treating many common and difficult conditions.
We are pleased to announce that beginning June 5th Morgan Martin joined our staff full time. Morgan was an intern in our office majoring in Health Care Management, and after graduating with honors at George Mason University, chose to join our team. Currently we have Brady Schmitt interning in our office. Brady is majoring in Exercise and Sport Science at the University of South Carolina Aiken. Say hello to both on your next visit.
Our entire staff attended a chiropractic training conference in Baltimore, May 9-11. Drs. Lim and Krakos attended the Advanced Atlas Orthogonal conference in Atlanta on May 20-21. Dr. Roy Sweat the founder of the AO Method was honored on the occasion of his 90th birthday. He continues to practice full time six days a week. The conference was attended by many neurologists, neuroradiologists and TMJ specialty dentists interested in the growing significance of the Craniocervical Junction / Upper Cervical / Atlas area of the body.

NEW OFFICE HOURS:
Beginning July 10, 2017, we will be offering expanded office hours to better serve our patients.

NEW OFFICE FEES:
Beginning July 10, 2017 our regular office visit fee and New Patient fee will change. Our regular office fee has remained the same since 2010. We have absorbed all increases in our expenses since that time even though operating expenses have increased significantly over the past 7 ½ years.
Our regular office visit fee will be $85.00.
Our New Patient fee will be $850.00 which includes the first three (3) office visits. Visit One includes the comprehensive clinical history, comprehensive spinal examination and Atlas Orthogonal specific digital x-ray images and analysis. Visit Two includes the Review of Findings report, first Atlas Orthogonal adjustment and post AO x-ray images and analysis. Visit Three includes evaluation of results, additional adjustment(s) if needed, and individual patient discussion of posture, exercise, nutrition and patient specific concerns and questions.
Care Plans are available for individuals and families. (Ask at the front desk.)
We are currently accepting new patients so if you know of a loved one, friend or co-worker in need of Atlas Chiropractic care please share your experience with them.
“SCHOOLS OUT FOR SUMMER” KIDS SPECIAL:
With kids out of school for the summer, and no longer lugging heavy backpacks, now is the perfect time to have your children checked for posture, scoliosis screening and overall spinal health. Take advantage of this great opportunity to improve your family’s health now and for years to come. New Patients from newborns through 18 years of age will receive 15% off all services through August 31. (Depending on the age of your child x-rays may or may not be performed.)
VACATION CLOSING:
The doctors will be out of the office June 28 thru July 5, 2017 for a little down time in sunny Costa Rica. Staff will be available in the office for making appointments, picking up supplements and any other communications. We will have additional office hours before and after our vacation on Monday and Tuesday, June 26 and 27; and Thursday and Friday, July 6 and 7.
Have a happy and healthy summer!!
