What Can I Expect During My First Visit to a Chiropractor?

Although each doctor' s process will vary, generally you can expect to complete a full medical history questionnaire and other "new patient" paperwork. You will then consult with the doctor while he completes your Case History. This consultation is your opportunity to express your health concerns and expectations, and to ask any questions you may have pertaining to the matter. It is also for the Chiropractic Physician to express his role in your health care and discuss your health prognosis. A physical exam will be performed which will include orthopedic and neurologic testing and a specific Chiropractic evaluation. In some cases x-rays may be necessary to determine an exact diagnosis. X-rays can usually be done at our office. Your Chiropractic Physician will go over the results of the exam and x-rays with you. Then, depending on your situation, the doctor may give you an adjustment and/or begin physical therapy modalities, if needed. Adjustments shouldn't be painful, although you may feel some discomfort until the pressure in the joint is relieved. Depending on your condition, your Chiropractic Physician will recommend a series of visits for care.
