First Visit
Upon arrival, you will be warmly greeted by our amazing front desk Chiropractic Assistant, who will take your paperwork and then give you a tour of our beautiful office so you know where things are and what to expect. They then will take you to the Consultation/Exam Room where the doctor will first meet with you to begin the consultation and exam, which incorporates many aspects, but with three main categories. First, our doctors will go over an extensive history with you in regard to your current and past health challenges, if any. Second, we will spend time explaining how chiropractic wellness care works, and specifically how things are done in our office. We strongly feel that the more we know about you, and the more you know about us, the more we can help, and that is our primary mission. The third component is likely the most important, and is begun once the consultation is done.
This component is our comprehensive NeuroStructural examination. The exam done at our office is very thorough and expansive, allowing us to figure out exactly what is going on with your health, and what the true cause of your challenges are.
The first part of the NeuroStructural exam is performing a computerized exam that allows us to measure the amount of stress on your central nervous system. This test is the foundation of our exam, click here for a more detailed description of this technology. The next part of the exam (when applicable, most times not needed in pediatric cases) is taking Structural Radiographs. This allows us to see what is going on with the structure of your spine, and how it relates to your challenge.
The major emphasis of our initial exam is to evaluate your spine and central nervous system, determine how it is functioning, and find where the stress and challenges are that will need to be addressed.
The doctors will then go over all the information gathered on this first visit and create a specific treatment plan to address and remove your current health challenges. This first day is very comprehensive, but should still be finished in less than an hour.
Second Visit
On your 2nd visit, our front desk staff will again greet you and get you checked in for your appointment. You will then be taken back to the Consultation/Exam room, where one of our doctors will go over all the results of your examination. We refer to this as your Report of Findings.
First, you will be shown your Structural Radiographs and any important findings from those will be discussed. This is the Structural component of your spine, and Structure directly relates to function. Next, we will go over the results of the scans that were performed relative to the Function of your body. The scans have 2-3 components depending on what was done.
After the scans are explained, it is very important to us that you have a good understanding of what is going on with the Structure of your spine and the Function of your nervous system.
Lastly, we will go over the details of your treatment plan and answer any and all questions you may have. Most treatment plans consist of three phases and those will be explained. If any additional consultation, examinations, referrals, or any other form of additional testing is recommended, we will go over those as well.
Once your report is finished, you will then be taken to an adjusting room for your first adjustment. Once that adjustment is performed, and you are on your way to improved health and wellness, you will then meet with our Chiropractic Assistant to go over the financial aspects of your care and your options with our affordable financial plans.
The entire 2nd visit should again take less than an hour, and will finish with the scheduling of your next appointment.
Complementary Consultation Request
This is a conversation, not a commitment. You can print out our New Patient Entrance forms from this website found under (New Patient Forms) or you can fill them out in our office. Upon completion of the NP forms, we will take you back for a Complimentary Consultation with one of our Doctors. We will review your history, address your concerns, and go over possible options with you. At that time, we will determine if we are a good fit for each other. If it is a good fit, we can proceed to our Diagnostic Indicators (sEMG, Thermography, and Radiographs) Examination or schedule it for a time in the future.
