Your First Visit
We understand that filling out paperwork at the doctors office can be a hassle. In order to respect your time we will e-mail you the appropriate intake forms prior to your first visit so they may be completed at your convenience.
Consultation – We will meet to review your health history and discuss your goals of care.
Examination – We will perform an examination to determine your current level of function.
This exam may include vitals, motion and postural assessments, and any orthopedic and neurologic tests deemed necessary based on your consultation. At various times throughout care we will also perform exams to determine your progress. These exams help us understand the cause of your challenges and provide direction for our care.
X-rays may be necessary to determine the severity and complexity of your vertebral subluxations as well as rule out pathology.
This visit may take up to an hour, depending on the severity of your case.
Your Second Visit
Report of Findings – We will share with you what we have discovered during your consultation, examination, and x-rays (if taken). We will discuss the care plan we have developed for you as well as any questions or concerns you may have. We encourage you to bring your family along so that any questions they have may also be asked and addressed.
Adjustment – We will assess you for any areas of interference and adjust you accordingly. All adjustments will be explained prior to being done so that you may feel completely comfortable.
This visit typically takes 30-45 minutes.
