Brief Paperwork
Upon entering the office, we have some brief paperwork for you to fill out.
The paperwork provides us with general information about yourself and your
condition.
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 what your actual problem is, 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.
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.
Same Day Treatment
Once finished with the examination and all appropriate studies, patients
will generally be provided with their first treatment during this same
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 1-2 days and are provided with
a complete review of findings. Treatment options for your condition will
also be discussed during this time.
