Frequently Asked Questions
-
Dr. Kristine Troesch is both a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) and a Certified Massage Therapist (CMT); a rare combination that allows her to treat your muscles, joints, posture, and nervous system in one coordinated session. Rather than a 10-minute adjustment and out the door, every visit at Grace Integrative Wellness is private, unhurried, and intentionally designed around your specific needs. We call this our Integrated Alignment approach, and it produces faster, more lasting results than single-modality care.

Treatments & Services
-
Our signature 60-minute service ($250) combines corrective bodywork, chiropractic adjustments, movement assessment, nervous system downregulation, and postural correction in a single coordinated session. It is ideal for patients seeking the fastest results and the most comprehensive care. Most new patients who want to address a specific complaint will find the Integrated Alignment Session the most effective entry point. This is the most powerful and most popular service Dr. Kristine offers.
-
Corrective bodywork is clinical soft tissue therapy focused on restoring functional movement, releasing trigger points, and correcting muscular imbalances. It differs from relaxation massage in that the work is targeted and goal-directed, designed to address specific pain patterns and movement restrictions. Dr. Kristine's background as a Certified Massage Therapist combined with her chiropractic training allows her to use these techniques with a level of precision that goes well beyond standard massage.
-
Yes! For patients who benefit from ongoing preventive care or maintenance treatment, we offer membership plans. Memberships provide priority scheduling and reduced per-visit rates. Visit our Memberships page or ask Dr. Kristine at your first appointment for current options.
-
This depends on your condition, its chronicity, and your goals. Many acute conditions respond significantly within 4–6 visits. Chronic or complex cases typically require a more extended care plan. Dr. Kristine will discuss realistic expectations at your first visit and reassess your progress regularly. We do not push unnecessary ongoing care; our goal is to get you well and keep you there.
