Personal & Clinic Updates

As you probably already know one thing that distinguishes my clinic is the personal relationship I have with my patients. Many of my patients have been keeping track of my wife’s recent pregnancy and wanted to know when my son Tanner was born and to see pictures of the little man. Well we are very excited to announce that he joined our family on Oct 10th. If you’d like a personal glimpse into our family feel free to visit my wife’s blog at http://2829woodwards.blogspot.com/ or check out her YouTube videos at http://www.youtube.com/user/2bfr33. All of my three children have been born at home and received their first adjustments within hours of their physically demanding exit from the womb.

After a very long year of programming changes and re-designing, I would like to announce that our new chiropractic website is finally up. Please visit us at http://www.woodwardchiro.com/. Let me know what you think. If you catch any typos or find some of the content hard to understand please offer your feedback.

New features of the site include a Spa Services page with great new Massage for Relaxation programs starting as low as $39.95 / month for our charter members. See http://www.woodwardchiro.com/SpaServices.aspx.

Also we now have Success Stories pages where you can read about the positive experiences many of our patients have shared. If you’ve had an experience with what make us unique as a clinic or profession, I’m sure our website viewers would love to hear. We are in the process of making it easier to add pictures and other information to make the testimonials even better. Please view our testimonial or consider adding your own at http://www.woodwardchiro.com/SuccessStories.aspx!

In other news I have recently completed the final courses and certifications to be a full body ART (Active Release Technique) provider. If you haven’t had an ART treatment and would like to know more please visit my new website at: http://www.woodwardchiro.com/DallasChiropracticServices/ActiveReleaseTechnique.aspx

Finally, I wanted to take a moment to speak candidly with you. We all know there has been a lot of talk about the economy lately. Whether it is fear or actually fundamental weaknesses the effects are the same. During lean times we all have to make sacrifices in our budgets. I know that means that some of my patients may not be able to afford to continue to get the care that they need. Please don’t make this decision without discussing your options with me. I have NEVER refused to treat a patient based their ability to pay. Hard times come and go. I want to be the chiropractor you trust and refer your friends and family to. If you are struggling, I will work out some kind of reduced rate or other fair exchange privately so you won’t feel embarrassed and can still get the care that you need. The best tool to dealing with stressful times is your good health!

As a reminder…If you have a health savings account now is the time to use it before the end of the year. We have excellent orthopedic neck pillows, custom orthotics, posture pumps, Biofreeze pain reliever, and several other really helpful items that are all covered by your use-it or loose-it plan.

If your insurance offers a certain number of chiropractic visits per year, those will also be expiring in a few months. Most patients have spent their deductibles by this point in the year, so if you’re aching, bent out of shape, or otherwise just due for a check-up now is a great time to schedule an appointment. Just call Brandy at 972-490-9888 or email her at brandy@woodwardchiro.com.

If we do not see you until next year, I want to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a Blessed Holiday Season!

To your health,
