First Visit
Once you have made your initial Chiropractic appointment we will send you a link for your intake paperwork. Please make sure you do this at least one day prior to your appointment. This gives the doctor time to review your health history. Please take the time to fill it out as completely as possible. This is important so that the doctor has as much information as possible about your health history.
Brief Paperwork
Upon entering the office, we have some brief paperwork for you to fill out. The paperwork provides us with a pain index concerning your condition and compliant HIPPA forms.
First Day of Treatment
Consultation
Once the paperwork has been completed, you will have a consultation with the doctor to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, as well as potential treatment options.
History and Examination
In order to determine your actual problem, the doctor will ask you various questions related to your condition. Next, a number of specialized Neurological & Orthopedic tests will be performed to determine which tissues are affected and to what extent.
Second Day of Treatment
After a detailed review of your health history, examination, and radiology findings, a care plan will be developed for you. This may include spinal adjustments, physical therapy, massage therapy, and/or decompression.
X-ray Studies
Your specific condition may require us to refer you for x-rays to either rule out more serious conditions or assist us in developing the most effective treatment plan for you.
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 1-2 days and are provided with a complete review of findings. Treatment options and a treatment plan for your condition will also be discussed during this time.
