1. Do you accept insurance?


Yes, we accept Personal Injury and Motor Vehicle Accident cases. Please bring any relevant documentation to your initial visit.

Absolutely! We understand that it can be challenging for new moms and families to leave the house. Dr. Padilla offers in-home visits in Duval County, Nocatee, and parts of St. Johns County for infant and perinatal care. All house calls are subject to travel fees.

3. Do you offer in-home visits/house calls?

No, chiropractic adjustments should not be painful. Dr. Padilla uses gentle techniques tailored to your individual needs and comfort level. You may hear a slight popping sound as joints are realigned, but this is normal and typically painless. Most patients report feeling relief and relaxation after an adjustment.

4. Do chiropractic adjustments hurt?

Yes, chiropractic care is safe and gentle for all ages, including newborns and toddlers. Dr. Padilla is a certified Pediatric Chiropractor with specialized training in providing care for infants and children.

5. Is chiropractic care safe for babies and children?

During this beautiful phase of your life, your body will experience many changes. Your center of gravity shifts, your baby grows and your body prepares for labor. Chiropractic adjustments have a huge benefit to keeping your comfortable and preparing you for birth.

6. Why should I see a chiropractor during pregnancy?

The frequency of adjustments will depend on your individual needs and goals. Your doctor will recommend a personalized treatment plan during your initial visit.

7. How often should I receive chiropractic adjustments?

Of course! We have a family-friendly waiting area with snacks, water, a breastfeeding corner, and a play area to keep your little ones entertained.

8. Can I bring my children with me to my appointment?

We recommend comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows for ease of movement. For adults, yoga pants or shorts and a t-shirt are ideal. For children, choose outfits that are easy to adjust and won't restrict their movement.

"My daughter is always excited to get adjusted and I know it's because Dr. P has made her feel SO comfortable."

We 💗 Dr. Padilla! Dr. P cares for me and my 2 year old daughter. What I love most is her calm demeanor with my little one. My daughter is always excited to get adjusted and I know it's because Dr. P has made her feel SO comfortable. While Dr. P has helped us with acute things (like hip pain postpartum for me) we try to go regularly enough so that the adjustments can help PREVENT things, especially to help prevent sickness with my little one in "school". I can't speak highly enough about Dr. P!

Dr. Cristina is a godsend to Mommas and families.
