What To Expect

Making an appointment with a new physician can sometimes feel overwhelming, and even cause anxiety for some. The staff at Chiropractic Health Center is here to put your mind at ease and make you feel comfortable through the entire process! To assist you, our new patient paperwork is available right here to allow you to complete the necessary information in the comfort of your own home. After you have made your appointment by phone or online, we ask that you bring those forms with you on your first visit, along with your insurance card and a photo ID. Once we have the information we need, you will begin your free consultation with the doctor of your choice.

What happens during a free consultation?

  • You and the doctor will have a conversation about what brings you to the office, as well as your health history
  • You will be able to ask the doctor questions and share any concerns that you may have
  • Based on the information gathered during the conversation, the doctor then decides how to proceed to find the root cause of your problem

The next step is typically an examination.

What happens during the exam?

  • The doctor performs orthopedic tests (ie specific movements to the involved area) to determine the source of the problem
  • The patient will be asked to move around within comfortable ranges to see how the problem is influencing everyday motion
  • Information gathered from the entire encounter will be used by the doctor to determine a diagnosis and if chiropractic care can help

If it is a chiropractic problem and there are no additional concerns, treatment can begin with your consent.

What happens during treatment?

  • After consideration of all of the information gathered, the doctor determines the best possible techniques and/or therapies to improve your specific issue
  • Everything is explained as the doctor puts all of that into action to help relieve your pain, always checking in on your comfort level
  • At the conclusion of the treatment, you may be given home care recommendations to assist in decreasing your discomfort

So that's the first visit, then what?

  • During follow-up visits, you will share the update on how you are doing and treatment will be updated as needed
  • We will discuss exercises, lifestyle changes, nutrition, supplements, ergonomics, etc to help you reach your health goals
  • We will continue to answer any questions you may have to help you understand your condition and the process of getting you well

That’s all there is to it! We will never be pushy or recommend more than what you need. We are here to be a member of your healthcare team and help you reach your goals. Give us a call or make your appointment online today and let’s get started!
