What to Expect on your First Visit

1. Consultation:

Here we will obtain information about you and your health history. We want to gain a clear understanding of your expectations and your health goals. We will also give you literature and clinical data to help you gain a better understanding of what we do in our office. All information obtained will help us decide if you are a candidate for chiropractic care in our office.

2. Evaluation:

A comprehensive chiropractic evaluation will be performed to further determine the exact cause of your health problems. Using our state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to locate the root cause of any dysfunction or subluxation within your body.

Palpation: This portion of the exam will involve the doctor checking your spine by hand. The doctor will check for spinal bone position, curvatures and muscle tone as it relates to vertebral subluxation.

Assessment: This involves reading spinal heat differences, as well as surface electrical impulses. Both of which are controlled by the nervous system.

3. Postural X-ray Analysis:

Spinal x-rays give the doctor an actual picture of your spine. It helps validate other exam findings as well as spinal bone position, the quality of the bone composition, and the safety of adjusting. X-rays also tell us the relative length of time vertebral subluxations may have been present in your spine. *Pregnancy, age, and certain situations will determine if x-rays are needed.

4. New Patient Orientation:

We will then schedule a follow up visit on the next day to review the results of your evaluation, number of visits needed, financial obligation for care, and give you your first adjustment!
