About us
A practice built on the exam and the explanation
Spur Wellness was started by Dr. Nolan Carbone, a chiropractor licensed in Iowa, for households who want to know what is being done and why.
Every visit begins with a conversation and an exam. Treatment follows only after you have heard the options, the risks and the cost. Dr. Carbone works with one front-desk coordinator, so you see the same two faces each time.
One doctor, one plan
Dr. Carbone sets your plan after the exam and walks you through it.
Questions welcome
Risks, cost and options are part of every visit.
Your choice at every step
You can say no to any part of care, or stop, at any time.

04Check-ins
We review how you are doing, change the plan with you, or refer you on when another provider is the better step.
