1. Brief Paperwork

When you arrive at our office, we'll have you fill out some brief paperwork. This provides us with general information about yourself and your condition.

2. Consultation

Once the paperwork has been completed, you will consult with our doctor to discuss your health concerns and any potential treatment options.

3. History and Examination

We'll ask you questions about your condition. Then, we will perform specialized tests to determine the tissues affected and the extent of the problems.

4. X-Ray Studies

Your symptoms may require X-rays to either rule out more serious conditions or help us develop the most effective treatment plan for your needs.

5. Same-Day Treatment

Once we've finished the exam and all studies, you can receive an initial treatment. This usually happens at your first visit. This could include spinal adjustments, physical therapies, and soft-tissue support.

6. Home Instructions

Before you leave, we will give you instructions on certain activities or procedures to continue treatment at home. This could include ice or heat application, avoiding certain positions, and exercises or stretches.

7. Schedule Your Next Appointment

Finally, we'll provide options for a convenient follow-up appointment. Most of the time, we see patients within one or two days to go over our findings more thoroughly. We will also discuss treatment at your follow-up.
