Team care that comes to the field
Reflex is a two-doctor practice for school and club teams and for people who train hard. We set up at your event, or see you at the clinic, and explain every step before we begin.
At an event
What we do at an event
From the first warm-up to the last whistle, this is how we work.
We set up
A portable table, tape and a place to sit, near the sideline or the warm-up area, agreed with the coach beforehand.
We talk first
An athlete tells us what is bothering them. We look at how the joint or muscle moves, and say what we found.
We offer hands-on care
Soft tissue work, tape or a joint adjustment, only if it fits and the athlete agrees. A parent or guardian agrees for anyone under 18.
We say when to stop
If something looks like it needs a physician, an athletic trainer or emergency care, we say so and help call for it. We do not make return-to-play calls after a head injury.
We leave a note
With the athlete's permission, a short written note for the athlete, a parent and the coach about what we looked at.
Who we see
People who train, and the people who run the team
School teams
Coaches and athletic directors who want a chiropractor at a game or meet.
Club teams
Youth and adult clubs, for a tournament weekend or a season.
CrossFit and lifting
Athletes who train hard and want someone to look at how they move.
Weekend runners and riders
Race and ride days, and the weeks around them.
For coaches
One call sets up the whole season
Tell us your schedule and your athletes' ages. We agree in writing what we will do, where we will set up and who is the contact on the day.
You do not need to buy a package. A team or club can ask for a single event, and we give you a written estimate before you decide.

What people say

Questions
What coaches and athletes ask
Can you come to a game or a meet?
Yes, by arrangement. Call or send the form with your date and place, and we reply with what we can cover.
Do you handle head injuries?
No. A player with a head injury, dizziness, confusion or a suspected broken bone needs a physician or emergency care. We say so right away and help call for it.
Does a parent have to agree?
Yes. A parent or guardian agrees for any athlete under 18, and the athlete can say no to any part of care.
What does it cost?
A school or club gets a written estimate before an event. Individuals see the fees page for how a visit is billed.
