On Your First Visit
Many people have never been to a chiropractor and are understandably nervous about their first visit. Here are some of the things you can expect, and some of the things you can do to make the visit go smoothly so that you can get back to a healthy state:
Getting Started
There is some brief, initial paperwork for you to fill out providing us with general information about yourself and your condition. You can speed up this process by making sure that you bring with you all the relevant contact numbers, policy numbers, etc.
Consultation
Upon completing paperwork you will have a consultation with the doctor to discuss health-related problems and concerns. It is very important to be completely open and honest with the doctor, in order to zero in on your specific concerns.
History and examination
To determine the parameters of your health problem, the doctor will conduct an initial examination, with the goal of working up your personal history with specific information. In addition, the doctor will perform specialized tests to confirm initial indications and rule out.
X-rays or diagnostic tests
Sometimes ordered to establish structural changes from normal or rule out more serious conditions.
Treatment
Generally after examination and appropriate studies, patients will be provided their first treatment during the visit. This may include spinal manipulation, physical therapies, soft tissue therapy, and some home instructions.
