ABOUT US
Chiropractic and Massage, One Plan
Cadence Chiropractic was founded by Dr. Mylene Natividad to bring chiropractic care and massage therapy together in Santa Fe. At your first visit your doctor takes your history, examines how you move, and explains what was found, your options and the risks of each. If massage suits you, our licensed massage therapist, Lorena Ortiz, works from the same plan.
We want you to understand your care. Your doctor explains each step before it happens, you can stop at any time, and what happens next is always your decision.
Exam first
Every new patient starts with a history and an exam, and a plain explanation of the options.
Two kinds of hands-on care
Chiropractic and massage, planned together around you and your week.
Your plan, your pace
You agree to a plan before treatment, and you can change it or stop.

SERVICES
Care Planned Around You
Each visit starts with an exam. Your doctor explains what is involved before you agree to anything.
Spinal adjustment
A quick, hands-on movement applied to a joint of the spine. Your doctor explains the risks and what you may feel before the first one.
Massage and soft tissue work
Hands-on work on muscles and connective tissue, from our licensed massage therapist or your doctor, planned with the rest of your care.
Movement and balance exercises
Simple exercises to practice at home, shown at your visit and checked at the next one.
Posture and movement advice
A look at how you sit, stand and move through your day, with advice for your desk, your car and the trail.
Sports and active care
Plans for people who run, lift or hike, built around your sport and your schedule.
HOW WE WORK
Listen. Explain. Agree.
Cadence is the pace of a good visit. We keep it simple, in three steps.
Listen first
Every visit starts with a conversation. We ask about your history and what you want from care, and we look at how you move, before we adjust anything.
Explain what we find
Your doctor explains findings, options and risks in plain words. Ask anything; questions are part of the visit.
Agree on a plan
You decide what happens next. Your doctor sets how often to come after the exam, and tells you when to see a physician instead.

FAQ
Common Questions
What people ask before a first visit.
What happens at my first appointment?
Plan on 60 minutes. You talk with your doctor about your history and what you want from care, and your doctor examines how you move, explains what was found and goes over your options and the risks of each. Treatment starts that day only if you agree.
Is chiropractic care safe?
Most people tolerate adjustments well, but no treatment is without risk. Some people are sore for a day or so afterward. Rare serious risks exist, including a stroke after neck manipulation, and your doctor explains them before you agree to an adjustment. We also offer low-force techniques. If your symptoms point to something outside chiropractic care, we tell you and suggest you see a physician.
Will it hurt?
Many people feel pressure or a stretch and not much more. Some feel sore afterward, as after a workout. Tell your doctor or therapist if anything is uncomfortable, and we will change what we are doing or stop.
How many visits will I need?
Your doctor sets a plan after the exam, and the plan changes as you do. We don't sell a set number of visits up front, and you can stop at any time.
Do you take my insurance?
We bill most PPO plans for chiropractic visits. What a plan pays differs from plan to plan, and plans often don't cover massage, so we check your benefits before your first visit. How fees work has the details.
What if I don't use insurance?
You pay at your visit, and you have the right to a Good Faith Estimate. We give you a written estimate in advance, before your first visit, and we can give you an itemized receipt to send to your plan.
Ready for a first visit?
