WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR VISITS

Average Duration: 1-1.5 hours*

​

• Completion of paperwork to allow the doctor to familiarize himself with your health history and the condition for which you desire care. 

• Consultation with the doctor to discuss the condition(s) which prompted you to schedule your appointment.

• Examination by the doctor to evaluate your symptoms, to determine if chiropractic care is appropriate in your case, and to assess whether further diagnostics are necessary.

• In most cases, your first visit will include chiropractic care.

Average Duration: 30-45 minutes*

​

• The doctor will discuss your clinical findings and posture screen with you and let you know if any additional testing or medical referral might be necessary to fully assess your condition.

• At that time, the doctor will recommend a plan of treatment which will help you to achieve your health-improvement goals.

• Any questions about your condition, its treatment, and its prognosis will be addressed.

• Patients find this two-visit approach desirable because it avoids an extremely long first visit and gives them time to formulate any questions for the doctor about their condition.

Average Duration: 10-20 minutes*

​

• Routine treatment generally includes manual therapy and a soft tissue component.  Therapies such as traction, myofascial decompression and Gua Sha may be utilized during your treatment visit.
