What to Expect

Brief Paperwork

Before coming in for chiropractic care, you will need to fill out a intake form. This intake form provides us with general information about yourself and your condition so we can treat you in the most effective way. This intake form can be found in the Online Forms section under New Patient Center.

Currently, the online intake form is not compatible with mobile devices (phones and tablets), so it will need to be filled out on a laptop or computer. 

Consultation

During the consultation, the doctor will spend some time discussing your health-related problems, concerns, as well as potential treatment options. 

History and Examination

In order to get to the root of your problem, the doctor will ask you various questions related to your condition. Next, a number of specialized tests will be performed to determine which tissues are affected and to what extent they have been affected.

X-ray Studies

Your specific condition may require us to take x-rays to either rule out more serious conditions or assist us in developing the most effective treatment plan for you. Our office utilizes a digital x-ray machine, which allows us to get results of your x-ray quickly. The doctor will go over your x-rays shortly after, discussing any concerns that arise from your results.

More information can be found at the Digital X-ray section under the Services tab.

Same Day Treatment

Once finished with the examination and all appropriate studies, patients will generally be provided with their first treatment during their initial visit. This may include spinal adjustments, physical therapies, and/or soft tissue therapies.

Home Instructions

Prior to leaving, patients will be given instructions on certain activities or procedures to be conducted at home. This may include ice or heat application instructions, avoidance of certain activities or positions, as well as home exercises and/or stretches.

Schedule Your Next Appointment

You will be given a convenient appointment time for your follow-up visit. Generally speaking, patients are seen within 2 days and are provided with a complete review of findings. Treatment options for your condition will also be discussed during this time.
