Have You Found The Right Place?

The Keystone Chiropractic Difference | Springfield, IL Chiropractor

Our approach to care is incredibly unique and effective. As a result, we often take care of patients who are frustrated and are looking for something different. 

We try our best to help people know if they have found the right place. So we created a list of the types of patients we often see in our office. If any of these describe you, we encourage you to schedule your first appointment today.

Individuals Seeking a Precise and Gentle Approach
People who prefer non-invasive, gentle chiropractic adjustments that avoid twisting or cracking often opt for upper cervical care. 

Chronic Pain Sufferers with Limited Success Elsewhere
Those who have tried other types of chiropractic care, physical therapy, or conventional medical treatments without significant relief may turn to upper cervical chiropractic.

People with Neurological Conditions
Individuals suffering from conditions like migraines, vertigo, Meniere’s disease, Trigeminal Neuralgia, or post-concussion syndrome often seek upper cervical care due to its focus on optimizing neurological function.

Skeptics of Traditional Chiropractic
Patients who are hesitant about traditional chiropractic care but are intrigued by the scientific, low-force, and specific nature of upper cervical chiropractic.

Patients with Delicate Health Concerns
Upper cervical chiropractic is often sought out by people with conditions requiring extra caution, such as osteoporosis, advanced age, or prior spinal surgeries.

People Interested in Holistic Healing
Those looking for drug-free, holistic options to improve their quality of life often find upper cervical chiropractic appealing.

People Experiencing Structural Imbalances
Individuals with scoliosis, leg-length discrepancies, or other structural imbalances may turn to upper cervical care for its focus

People Looking for Advanced Imaging
If you want the most precise evaluation possible, you’re in the right place. We are one of only a few chiropractors around the country using CBCT (Cone Beam CT) imaging to get an unparalleled 3D view of your spine.

Patients Who Want Measurable Progress, Not Just Pain Relief
It’s not enough to just “feel better.” You want proof that you’re actually healing. That’s why we use Neck-Care progress exams, a breakthrough technology that objectively measures:
✔ Range of Motion (ROM) – Tracks mobility and function
✔ Proprioception Testing – Evaluates how well your body is adapting
✔ Butterfly Test – Assesses neck-to-eye coordination

People Who Want to Graduate to Less Frequent Care
Many chiropractors require weekly visits because misalignments keep coming back. Our goal? To help you stay in alignment, so you don’t need constant adjustments.

Patients who commit to our process often graduate to check-ups instead of needing ongoing weekly care.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do You Accept Insurance?

We do accept Medicare. We also accept Personal Injury cases if we feel that they are a good fit for what we do.

Besides that, Keystone Chiropractic operates as a non-insurance clinic. Being a direct-pay chiropractic clinic allows us to offer high-quality, customized care at an affordable price and avoid the hassles of insurance billing, copays, deductibles, and declined reimbursements.

However, we do make a superbill available to our patients, upon request, as a receipt that can be submitted to your insurance.

What is Upper Cervical Chiropractic?

  • Upper cervical care is personalized. You will see that our process is tailored specifically to fit your individual needs.
  • Holding is healing. That’s what upper cervical is about. The longer the two bones stay in alignment, the fewer office visits are needed.

Once we meet with you and discuss your health history, we will review your visit expectations and see how we can best match those with our services.

Trusted Springfield Chiropractor: What Our Patients Are Saying

Helpful. Truly helpful. Dr. Schurgar recognized my hip/back pain as something needing to be exercised. He recommended and demonstrated some exercises and advised a web search. After he realigned my neck and gave me a brief rest, my return to normalcy, (being pain free) began. As for friendliness, he and Jean are tops!

Dr. Schurger has changed my life! When we met a few years ago, I was dependent on forearm crutches or a walker to get around. However, the pain and fatigue kept me from getting out much at all. After starting treatments to correct my out-of-alignment vertebrae, I got my life back. I am now able to walk completely unaided by mobility aids, and even was able to renew my expired driving license. I will have to continue treatment for the rest of my life, but I cannot thank Dr. Schurger enough for giving me my life back!
Diana | Verified 5-Star Google Review

I found Dr. Shurger when I had exhausted all other avenues and bought I was at a loss. I had broken my back a few years ago and was having severe pain almost daily with even little movement. After the first treatment, I knew I had found the key to my recovery and healing. I recommend his practice to absolutely everyone.
Jeanna B. | Verified 5-Star Google Review

I am an eight-year extreme migraine sufferer and used medications and regular chiropractic care for the same amount of time. I have also worn orthotics for the last seven years, too. In two visits I was migraine and headache-free and out of my custom orthotics. I would go to the regular chiropractor when I had a headache and get mild relief but when I get an adjustment from Dr. SCHUGER it goes away. I also did physical therapy for my neck to no avail. This works and I started when he came highly recommended from three co-workers.
