I think "consultation" is the key word here.
You'll be talked to about your posture, and perhaps an action plan (with additional, full-priced sessions) will be arranged for the future.
a $19 spinal correction … what could possibly go wrong :)
perhaps you need to research chiropractors
there are many things you should hunt around for the best deal for.
your spine is not one of them.
Ah chiros and xrays. Just a heads up, it's no longer(heck it's never been, but now it's official) advised to xray a 'non-specific' back pain. A thorough history would be more than enough to find out what's going on. Less xray for you (and for the taxpayers hip pockets).
They do it to get new clients. So it's a loss leading on the new consult, in the hope you will come back because why would you buy it in the first place if you didn't have a problem? That's the idea.
Disclaimer: I used to work for a place that did this kind of thing (not scoopon, the actual place but there is only a button at the bottom "associated with scoopon")The catch is
they have your details
they tell you whats wrong
they tell you how they can fix you and increase your lifeis your personal information worth $19?
This reeks of Chiropractor.
Sorry… Dr. Chiropractor.
The catch is you will feel temporarily better without fixing anything in your spine and you will develop an expensive habit to bandaid your underlying problem with superficial placebo treatments.
you would better seeing physio instead.
If you have actual spinal issues, you'd be better off seeing a doctor (and possibly getting a referral to a specialist) - not some mob that are desperate for new clients. (But I'm speaking as a mother of a child that has had to have spinal surgery for scoliosis - scoli families see the world a little differently. Especially when given really useful info like - 'oh, orthotics will fix it' or 'they just need to stand up straight' etc.)
It is somebody telling you to sit up straight for $19.
"Sit up straight!" PM me for paypal details…
With less snark, I think the catch is you aren't receiving anything of any particular value. It will be a short intro massage.
