Do You Need a Referral to See a Chiropractor in Arkansas?

🩺 No Referral Needed = Faster Access to Care
In Arkansas, chiropractors are considered primary care providers for musculoskeletal conditions. That means:
You can call and schedule an appointment directly
You don’t need to wait for your medical doctor to approve it
