I love my chiropractors! Dr. Curt Buss and I chat about why chiropractic is so good for kids! I think that if kids see a chiropractor regularly, it would decrease the sick visits to my office. (And what do you think about my duck microphone? 🐥)

Today is Dr Seuss' Birthday!

What was your favorite Dr Seuss book growing up? What is your kids' favorite? What book did you accidentally memorize because you read it so much that you could probably recite it with 90% accuracy, even today?

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Becky here, with a road construction update of a sort.

North bound McLean is one lane only while they work on installing the new fence for the homes that back up against McLean Blvd. They aren't stopping traffic, at least not yet, just moving it all into the left lane.

Our entrance is open.

Also, the construction zone speed limit is 30 (I think, it's for sure NOT 45), be safe as you travel through there.

We will be turning phones over to service today from 1-2 pm.

One of our families has had a recent, devastating loss of their home. If you have a few dollars and prayers to spare, please donate. If you dont like that the crowd funding take a % of your donation, we will be taking donations at the office.

Becky here, and by here, I mean in office. We are in the office today, we have appointments available for both sick and well.

If you are going out, please remember to bundle up and cover exposed skin. One of the weather reports said that exposed skin can start to experience frostbite within ten minutes, with the younger and the older being at higher risk. We don't want to see you for this.

Putting on my Mom Hat, with my Dad's voice in my ear: for your car, even if it's a new one that is reliable, make sure you have topped off your windshield washer fluid (I use the deicer combo in the winter months); blankets, water and snacks, just in case you're stuck for some reason; an extra hat and gloves too.

For those of you that are staying home today, what's on your agenda? If you're having a soup day, what are you making?

01/21/2026

We have a meeting today from 1 - 215, so phones will be off during that time.

Becky here, with an update to my last insurance post.

Some families received a letter stating that Dr Schening was out of network with Blue Cross Blue Shield Community insurance. When we recredentialed last fall, there was a mistake in processing on the state's end. We were initially told it would resolve by mid February.

We are happy to say that four of our five providers have had this issue resolved. We are currently waiting for one provider to be recredentialed and then any provider can see any patient with any insurance.

Some of you may have been assigned to a new provider. I would still wait until this last bit has resolved before calling your insurance to switch back to Dr Schening.

Thank you so very much for your patience and understanding as we worked through this. It makes a tough situation easier, and we do appreciate it.

Becky here, looking for information for one of our families. I have a family that lives in the Pingree Grove area that is looking for a home school co-op. They are having a hard time finding something that fits. She is willing to drive 20-30 minutes, so it doesn't have to be something "in town".

Does anybody have any suggestions that I can pass along to them?
