The
Greater Sandpoint Chamber of Commerce is excited to welcome Caribou
Chiropractic and Massage. Dr. Todd Richards and his wife Kimberly Richards
opened Caribou Chiropractic and Massage in February at 513 N Fourth Avenue in
Sandpoint, next to the K2 Inn. They offer chiropractic adjustments through
various methods including electric stimulation, ultrasound, drop table and diversified
techniques and massage therapy.
After
traveling through North Idaho going to rodeos as a young adult, Dr. Richards
longed to settle down and call this area home. Last fall, the Richards’ visited
Sandpoint and returned two months later with all of their belongings. Their
focus was to bring affordable care to the area so locals could enjoy their
services. The outdoors allows them to do all the things they love: camping,
biking, fishing and hunting.
‘Everyone
in Sandpoint is so welcoming and friendly,’ said Kimberly. ‘We have enjoyed meeting
community members, getting involved in the Chamber, and I’ve joined the Chamber’s
Women In Business and Sandpoint Rotary.’
Caribou
Chiropractic and Massage’s philosophy is to start slow by analyzing the patients’
pain, explaining their body and customizing a treatment plan. They use gentle
adjustments and empathize with patients during the treatment. They promote
their emphasis on working with doctors and other health care professionals when
developing a patient’s treatment plan to maximize the patient’s success.
First
time visits to Dr. Richards cost $60 and all subsequent visits are only $40.
They do not require x-rays and do not bill or accept health insurance to keep
it more affordable for their patients. Their staff will happily deal directly
with your auto insurance company in the case of auto accident claims. Massage
therapy includes full body, sport and deep tissue massage and brief clinical
massages which focus on certain areas of pain or tension which Dr. Richards
will work on. The cost for massages is very affordable: $25 half hr. They make
it easy to add them onto your adjustment to focus on the treatment area.
Dr.
Richards started his own practice in 2010 in Lockhart, Texas after graduating
from Parker Chiropractic College in Dallas, Texas. Kimberly left the banking
world as an auditor and joined her husband in the office. She’s recently completed
her schooling and received her license and certification for massage therapy. She’s
also nationally certified in equine massage, since 2011, which made massage
therapy a natural fit.
Please help the Greater Sandpoint Chamber
of Commerce welcome Caribou Chiropractic and Massage to the Chamber and wish
them success. Their office hours are Monday, Wednesday, Friday from 9am-noon
and 2pm-5pm, Tuesdays from 9am-noon and Saturday by appointment only. For more information,
visit them at their office 513 N Fourth Avenue, at their website www.caribouchiropractic.com or
call them at 877-633-2695.
