At Bee Well Chiropractic, we offer three phases of care depending on your goals and needs. Whether you’re here for immediate relief or long-term transformation, your care is always your choice — we’re here to support you.
Relief Care – Addressing the Immediate Issue
This is where many people begin: headaches, colic, feeding challenges, sleep struggles, or pain that’s interfering with your daily life. Relief care is about helping your body unwind tension and start to feel better quickly — and we’re really good at it. However, we also know that these symptoms often return if we don’t address the root cause. Think of it like patching a leak instead of fixing the plumbing — it helps, but it’s usually temporary.
Corrective Care – Creating Lasting Change
Once the immediate stress has eased, we often recommend moving into corrective care. This is where we work on deeper patterns in the spine and nervous system that may have been developing for years. It’s like choosing to straighten your teeth with Invisalign rather than just filling cavities over and over again. Corrective care supports long-term change, better function, and fewer flare-ups, so you're not relying on symptoms to tell you how you're doing.
Wellness Care – Supporting a Thriving Life
Many people choose to stay under care even after symptoms are gone — not because they "have to," but because they feel the difference. More energy, better sleep, fewer illnesses, improved mood, and greater adaptability are common benefits we hear. Wellness care is about maintaining a strong foundation so your body can keep up with life’s demands without breaking down.
If you're not sure what phase is right for you, we’re happy to walk through your goals and help you decide what makes sense for your life.
We do not bill insurance directly, but we’re happy to provide a superbill if your plan includes out-of-network benefits.

Personalized, Whole-Body Chiropractic Care
We have you come back within a week of your first visit for your report and second adjustment. During that visit, you'll receive a personalized report with everything we found on the exam, along with a customized care plan based on your health history and goals. We’ll also talk about payment options and packages to make care affordable for you and your family.
Every body responds differently. Babies often have a big poop, nap, or even a wave of emotions as their systems reset. Adults might feel immediate relief, or some post-adjustment soreness — like after a good workout. This typically resolves within a day, and most people report feeling better than before. It is a process to get your body clear and holding your adjustments!
Dr. Maria uses a full spine adjustment approach that blends traditional hands-on techniques with gentle, low-force methods — always tailored to your individual needs and comfort level. Every adjustment is based on your spine, posture, lifestyle, and how your body responds to care. No two plans are the same, because no two people are.
We adjust people of all ages under 65 (we do not bill medicare) — from adults and brand new babies, to dads and postpartum moms. Infant care is incredibly light and soothing — no “cracking” involved. Many babies sleep through their adjustment.
Pregnant moms are in expert hands and Dr. Maria is Webster Certified and also holds advanced training in prenatal care. Adjustments can ease pregnancy-related discomforts and support optimal baby positioning and birth outcomes.
Even if you’ve had spinal surgery, we can modify techniques to safely support healing and function.
Whether you're coming in with symptoms or simply want to stay well, our goal is to help your body restore balance, function, and energy — naturally.
What Happens Next
What to Expect After Your First Adjustment
Your initial appointment is 30–40 minutes. It includes a thorough consultation and a full chiropractic exam. Most people receive their first adjustment at this visit unless imaging or referrals are needed first. We'll always explain everything and make sure you're comfortable — no surprises.
We welcome questions and want you to feel fully informed about what we’re doing and why. Our job is to help you understand what’s going on in your (or your child’s) body and how we can help you reach your goals.
Your First Visit
We offer easy online booking so you can schedule a time that works for you — or you can always call or text us at 530-648-0668 if that is easier for you. Once you're on the schedule, you'll get an email with a link to fill out your intake forms online. These help us get to know your goals and concerns, so when you arrive we can dive right in.
When you come to Bee Well, we hope you feel immediately at ease. We ask you to remove your shoes at the door - we often have little ones crawling around on the floor. Our waiting area feels like a living room with lots of cozy couches. We have tea and water available, and plenty of toys for your littles to play with. Many of our clients like to arrive early or stay a bit after — to nurse, stretch, play, or just take a breath before jumping back into the day.
Dr. Maria adjusts adults in a private room and sees babies and toddlers in the main space — sometimes while they’re still happily playing. Our space is designed for you to feel at home.
Booking Your First Visit
When You Arrive
We’re so glad you’re here! Whether you're coming in for yourself or your child, this page will guide you through everything you need to know — from scheduling your first visit to what care looks like over time.
Getting Started at Bee Well Chiropractic
Your body was designed to heal, grow, and thrive — and it does all of that through the nervous system. Every function, from contractions during labor to digestion, immune response, sleep, and emotional regulation, is controlled by the brain communicating with the body through the spine and nerves.
Chiropractic isn’t about fixing you — it’s about removing the interference that’s getting in the way of your body doing what it already knows how to do. When the nervous system is clear, the body can function the way it was meant to: intelligently, efficiently, and powerfully.
That’s the beauty of Chiropractic. It is profoundly simple, and simply profound!

So, where do we begin? With a first visit!
Bring your baby to Dr. Maria! Dr. Maria provided exceptional care for my newborn daughter, who was struggling with oral ties. Her expertise and gentle approach with babies were evident from the start. She skillfully adjusted my daughter which helped with latching and nursing, ensuring she could build up strength before her tongue tie release procedure. Dr. Maria's compassionate and effective care made a significant difference in our breastfeeding journey and my daughter’s torticollis. Her beautiful head shape and all the tiny blessings in between is all due to this woman’s magical healing hands. I highly recommend Dr. Maria for anyone seeking pediatric chiropractic care, especially for issues related to oral ties. -Emily N.

We have been seeing Dr.Maria for our Little One for a few months starting at 6 months old. She is WONDERFUL! As a mother to feel so welcomed, heard, validated and supported in the medical field is unfortunately hard to come by and something not even money can buy. She delivers every time and seeing even the slightest improvements make the investment worthwhile. Each little graduation to less frequent visits are bittersweet ❤️ I cannot recommend her enough. -Kristina E.
"I cannot recommend her enough"
My 9 year old son had chronic debilitating stomach pains for two months. After several emergency room visits and a 5 day hospital stay with no answers, we decided to try something different. I can’t speak highly enough of Bee Well Chiropractic, in a week of care my son was starting to feel better and returning to his normal activities. After a month of adjustments he no longer had pain, and back to his normal self. - Jennifer B

She has guided me through sports injuries, work stress and the aches and pains from overdoing it in everyday life. Dr. Maria is a healer, an educator and a vital part of my overall health and well being. – Gina W.

My son first saw Dr. Maria when he was seven weeks old. He was jaundice, colicky, gassy, didn’t sleep much and had terrible reflux. Within hours of his first visit, the jaundice faded completely out of his body. Over the next few weeks of care with Dr. Maria, he became a much more relaxed and happy baby. Dr. Maria noticed that he was possibly tongue tied and referred us to an IBCLC. She confirmed the tongue and lip ties and referred us to a pediatric dentist for oral tie release. We did several weeks of chiropractic care with Dr. Maria then had his ties released. With the help of Dr. Maria, his recovery went very smooth. His body has responded very well and he is happy and thriving now. I highly recommend Dr. Maria! - Kallie M.

She is truly one of a kind Doctor. My experience with her has been nothing but amazing. I have been adjusted by many different chiropractors, and her knowledge and adjusting skills are top notch. She is gentle, but delivers very powerful adjustments, which makes you feel an immediate difference in your mind and body. I highly recommend anybody in the area to get under care with her, you will not regret it! – Cristina A.
"Dr. Maria has such a big and beautiful heart, which radiates in her practice and her adjusting skills."
She saw me during my pregnancy and now sees my newborn and is a baby whisperer! She is so gentle and soft spoken. I could not recommend Dr. Maria more! If you're expecting, have a little one, or just needing help to feel better, come see Dr. Maria, you will thank yourself! – Megan P.
"Dr. Maria is a baby whisperer!"
Her adjustments, exercise videos and suggestions really helped me get unstuck, not only in my spine, but in my life. It’s amazing how holistically connected everything is, and I’m grateful to have a chiropractor on my team that understands this so deeply. Thanks Dr. Maria! She also has an amazing booking system for easily scheduling a session whenever I need one, right from my phone. Nice office with a space to stretch and roll out my back. - Blair B.

She helped keep me balanced throughout my pregnancy and now with my newborn, she's been working wonders with my baby's tight latch, jaw, and shoulders. My little girl literally becomes unwound before my eyes in our sessions. It's quite miraculous to witness. – Lauren J.
"Dr. Maria is a dream to work with!"
Dr. Maria helped my body feel better in so many ways during my pregnancy and into postpartum. She’s the most thorough chiropractor I’ve worked with and has a wide range of techniques. She helped solve some major discomfort happening during the third trimester of pregnancy and that work contributed to a smooth and positive labor and delivery. And then she came to my aid in the early days of postpartum and helped correct sciatica and back pain. Thank you Dr. Maria! -Aletheia Z
