What to Expect on Your First Visit at 180 Chiropractic

180º Chiropractic embodies the changing direction of contemporary health care. We begin with a comprehensive assessment of where you are now: a detailed health history, a posture and range-of-motion evaluation, and safe, precision digital X-rays if they're needed. We also consider how your daily activities, diet, and stress may be contributing to your symptoms.

From there, we create a personalized plan with clear, objective measures so we can track your progress together. You'll receive an honest picture of your current health, the likely cause of your condition, and options to choose from. From there, you simply select the course that best fits your schedule, lifestyle, and insurance or financial needs.

180° Chiropractic

180º Chiropractic embodies the changing direction of contemporary health care. In recent years, clinical studies and health care research have revealed an essential role for chiropractic care in addressing acute and chronic pain, osteoporosis, as well as in improving balance, strength, overall human performance and health. While it is true that we have treated athletes from the NFL, NBA, ATP and NASCAR as well as other professional and college teams, but most of our patients are just regular folks and weekend warriors.

Our Beaverton chiropractors provide research-based care for long term results, not just temporary pain relief. We help with issues related to chronic pain, accident recovery, sports injuries, and even scoliosis. Our goal: to restore healthy spinal alignment and help you move and feel better.

Every care plan begins with a review of your health history, posture and mobility. We then offer a personalized plan to reduce pain and improve spinal function. This may include spinal adjustments, spinal manipulation, physical therapy, massage therapy, nutrition and/or at-home exercises. Your custom plan is tailored to your specific needs.

We're proud to be the first ScoliBrace®-certified clinic in Oregon. This tool allows for non-surgical treatment of scoliosis in children, teens, and even older adults. Many cases of scoliosis can be managed conservatively. Our approach to treating scoliosis focuses on reducing curve progression, easing pain and improving posture. We do so while protecting your quality of life, and not rushing toward surgery.

From everyday aches to complex conditions, 180 Chiropractic is here to help. We support the whole body through evidence, compassion, and measurable progress. Request an appointment today and take the first step toward changing the direction of your health.

Welcome to 180° Chiropractic

180° Chiropractic's new direction in chiropractic care encompasses expertise in both traditional and nontraditional specialty areas. Our unique services include the BStrong4Life™ program (We were the first clinic on the west coast with it), an amazing program that uses state-of-the-art equipment to increase strength, improve balance and bone health -- all in just one visit per week.

We also offer Chiropractic Biophysics (R) care for structural correction, pain relief and injury care, sports performance programs for athletes, orthotics, massage therapy, and nutritional support among many other treatment modalities. Our office is the first certified ScoliCare clinic in Oregon for non-surgical treatment of scoliosis. (For a complete list, please refer to our Services and Techniques.)


We are a ScoliBrace certified clinic! The new ScoliBrace is unique and different from traditional braces. In the majority of cases, we often see decreasing rib humping, shoulder unleveling, and other postural distortions. In most cases the overall posture and appearance of the patient’s body is greatly improved. Learn more here.

Our doctors regularly attend educational seminars to stay up on the current research and advances in cutting edge chiropractic care.

Charting a New Course for Your Health

180° Chiropractic distinguishes itself by offering individualized total care plans. Whether your first visit to 180º Chiropractic is related to a motor vehicle or work related accident, sports injury, poor posture, scoliosis or chronic back or neck problems, we begin with a comprehensive assessment of where you are now. We’ll gather a detailed health history, take a set of safe, precision, digital X-rays if needed; evaluate your posture, and consider how your diet, everyday activities, stress levels and other factors that may be contributing to your present state.

We then create a personalized plan of care designed to achieve your treatment goals. The plan also includes objective measures we can use to evaluate progress toward those goals. The plan offers you a comprehensive picture of your current health status, as well as insight into the cause of your condition and honest options to choose from regarding how you would like to proceed. It will include a regimen of chiropractic therapies and rehabilitative exercises in addition to dietary recommendations, home regimens, and ergonomic products that will help reduce pain and prevent further recurrences or injury.

A New Direction in Chiropractic Care

180° Chiropractic blends traditional chiropractic with advanced, evidence-based specialty care. Our doctors regularly attend educational seminars to stay current with the latest research, so the care you receive reflects where chiropractic is today — not where it was decades ago. We're certified in Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP®), an approach centered on structural correction rather than short-term symptom relief. Dr. Michael L. Underhill was recognized as the 2023 CBP® Chiropractor of the Year. Our clinic was the first certified ScoliCare® clinic in Oregon for non-surgical scoliosis treatment.

We then create a personalized plan designed to achieve your treatment goals. We offer a regimen of chiropractic therapies and rehabilitative exercises in addition to dietary recommendations, home regimens, and ergonomic products that will help reduce pain and prevent further injury. Throughout the process, you determine the course that best fits your schedule, lifestyle and insurance/financial needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

No, you do not need a referral to see a chiropractor. In Oregon, chiropractors are recognized as primary care providers, so in most cases you can schedule directly without a referral from your family doctor. Some insurance plans may still require a referral for coverage purposes, so it's worth confirming with your plan. The friendly staff at 180 Chiropractic would be happy to check your benefits for you. Call or text us at (503) 646-2278 to begin the process.

In most cases, yes. Chiropractic care is covered by nearly all major medical plans, as well as Medicare, workers' compensation, auto insurance, and some Oregon Health Plan (OHP) plans. Coverage details may vary by plan, which will affect deductibles, visit limits, and whether certain services require a referral. We're happy to verify your specific benefits before you begin care. Call or text us at (503) 646-2278 for more information.

In most cases, yes. Oregon law requires every auto policy to include Personal Injury Protection (PIP), which covers “medically necessary care,” including chiropractic, after an accident. After a motor vehicle accident, you have the right to choose your own provider; we routinely treat whiplash and other auto-injury cases and can help you navigate the process. Using your PIP benefits does not raise your premiums. If the costs of your medical care exceed your PIP limits, speak with an attorney about pursuing a third-party lawsuit against the at-fault driver.

For appropriate conditions, chiropractic care is widely regarded as a safe, conservative, non-drug, non-surgical option. We always start with a thorough assessment and health history to confirm care is the right fit for you, and our methods are grounded in current research.

At this time, chiropractic care is not considered a "cure" for scoliosis. However, a conservative, non-surgical approach can play a meaningful role in reducing pain, improving posture and mobility, and slowing curve progression. As a ScoliBrace®-certified clinic, 180 Chiropractic tailors scoliosis care for each patient's curve type, age, and health goals.

Children can be treated for scoliosis at any age, including infancy. Scoliosis is often identified during the adolescent growth years, when early detection matters most. Our highly trained treatment staff provide scoliosis screening and conservative care for children and teens, as well as for adults managing existing curves. Catching a curve early gives families more non-surgical options. If you believe your child has scoliosis, call us as soon as possible for a medical evaluation: (503) 646-2278.

Most patients find adjustments comfortable, and many feel relief right away. We use gentle, precise techniques and adapt our approach to your comfort level. Some people notice mild, temporary soreness afterward, similar to how you might feel after light exercise.

That "pop" or "crack" sound is caused by the release of gas bubbles from the synovial fluid surrounding your joints. (This is called a “joint cavitation.”) It is not dangerous, or a sign that anything is wrong with your body.

Absolutely. We offer non-manipulative, low-force techniques for patients who are uneasy about the cracking sound. While the popping or cracking sound is a harmless byproduct of chiropractic adjustments, cracking is not necessary for chiropractic adjustments. Be sure to communicate your preferences to your chiropractor during your visit.
