Your use of this website does not by itself establish a doctor-patient relationship between you and First Chiropractic, Dr. Greg Hixon, or any other provider.
2. No Medical Advice
Information presented on this website is general in nature and should not be interpreted as individualized medical advice.
Chiropractic care and other healthcare services may not be appropriate for every individual or condition. Diagnosis and treatment recommendations require consideration of a patient’s individual circumstances and an appropriate clinical evaluation.

4. Appointment Requests
Submitting an appointment request through our website does not guarantee that an appointment has been scheduled.
An appointment is not considered confirmed until First Chiropractic confirms the appointment with you.

Please do not submit confidential medical information, protected health information, Social Security numbers, financial account information, or other highly sensitive information through general website forms or regular email unless you are specifically instructed to use a secure method.
