Greeting
You will be greeted by a friendly, courteous staff that will take
your important medical information and will guide you through our
office.
Consultation
Your doctor will speak with you about your specific complaint and
will take thorough notes on your medical history. Please bring any
pertinent information such as MRI reports or X-rays.
Examination
You will be given a thorough orthopedic and neurological exam, which
will allow us to diagnose your condition. X-rays may be taken to
help rule out aggravating factors. When needed, outside imaging
modalities and lab work may be ordered.
Report
of Findings
The doctor will review your exam and X-ray findings with you. If
your chiropractor feels chiropractic will help you, then a treatment
plan will be given. Most conditions respond in 6-8 visits.
Treatment
Treatment will be given in an individualized manner. This will consist
of specific chiropractic adjusting to get you moving pain-free again.
Complementing your adjustment, any number of physiotherapeutic modalities,
massage techniques, or home care recommendations will be given.
Your
first visit usually takes anywhere from 1 to 1 ½ hours. Arriving
fifteen minutes early for paperwork will help to ensure a low wait
time to meet your doctor.
