First Visit

Upon scheduling your appointment, the new patient paperwork will be emailed to you for your convenience. The paperwork provides us with general information about yourself and your condition.

Once the paperwork has been completed, you will have a comprehensive consultation with the doctor to discuss your health history, problems, concerns, as well as recommended treatment options.

In order to address the root cause of your conditions, the doctor will ask you various questions related to your health. Next, a number of specialized tests will be performed to determine which tissues are affected and to what extent.

Your specific condition may require us to take x-rays to either rule out more serious conditions or assist us in developing the most effective treatment plan for you.

Once finished with the examination and all appropriate studies, patients will generally be provided with their first treatment during this same visit. This may include spinal adjustments, acupuncture, physical therapies, and/or soft tissue therapies.

Prior to leaving, patients will be given instructions on certain activities or procedures to be conducted at home. This may include ice or heat application instructions, avoidance of certain activities or positions, as well as home exercises and/or stretches.

You will be given a convenient appointment time for your follow-up visit. Generally speaking, patients are seen within 1-2 days and are provided with a complete review of findings. A customized treatment plan will also be discussed during this time.
