What to Expect On Your First Visit


Our warm friendly staff will greet and guide you through a detailed patient intake form to fully understand your specific spine and health concerns. The chiropractor will then discuss and explain how problems of the spine occur, and the available treatments we have to offer. Utilizing a state of the art computerized program, your chiropractor is able to objectively measure the severity of your specific concern. X-rays are commonly requested to ensure no piece of the puzzle is overlooked.

Your first consultation takes approximately one hour, with majority of your time spent one-on-one with your chiropractor. It is recommended that you wear loose, comfortable clothing as your spinal range of motion will be checked. Because the computerized instruments are extremely sensitive, the activities listed below may interfere with the authenticity of the results. We recommend that the day of your appointment the following activities should be avoided:
  • Excessive caffeine (coffee, pop)
  • Nicotine
  • Over the counter drugs (Ex. Advil)
  • Muscle relaxants

  • Excessive exposure to sun
  • Bath salts, oils, sunscreen
  • Vigorous activity
  • Excessive personal stress
