If you are suffering from back
pain or neck pain caused by a car accident or sports injury, seeking care from
a Chiropractor can help and is a great way to reduce
pain and discomfort. Here is what to
expect when you arrive at your appointment.
Your Medical History Is Assessed
Bring along any information about your medical condition, as well as any past medical difficulties you had treated. This is important so we know what was already tried and what to avoid to keep you safe during treatment.
Physical Exam
During your first visit, a physical exam is performed. This includes checking your heart, lungs, blood pressure, orthopedic tests, neurological tests, range of motion tests, and a postural assessment. This allows us to give you as good of a diagnosis as possible, and helps determine if further testing is needed and allows us to create a proper treatment plan for you.
Routine Chiropractic Care Is Provided
We will use our assessments to tailor a treatment plan for you if needed. This may include electric stim to the affected area, soft tissue work, Chiropractic adjustments, stretches and exercises. Also, home stretches, exercises, and lifestyle changes will be discussed with you to help you heal as quickly and safely as possible.
