What to expect on your first visit to the chiropractor…
While we are treating your back pain, neck pain, headache, or other aches and pains, we still need a complete picture of your health history and overall current health in order to provide the best possible treatment for you.
Set aside at least 45 minutes for your first visit to the chiropractor. Future visits typically last 10-15 min, though the time required will depend upon the type of treatment you require.
On your first visit, we will take a full personal and family medical history, major illnesses you have experienced, surgeries or operations you have had and medications you are taking. And we will ask you about your present condition, the steps you have taken to manage your condition, your diet and exercise, your sleeping habits, daily activities, work routine, stress level, and home life.
It is a good idea to wear comfortable clothes and shoes for your visit. We do provide shorts and gowns which we may ask you to change into to perform some tests. These tests may include a check of your blood pressure, pulse and breathing, a test of your reflexes, strength and sensations, an analysis of your posture and an X-ray of your spine if required.
Your examination includes an analysis of your movement and a hands-on evaluation of how well your spine moves, identifying restrictions and areas of improper motion. It will also involve orthopaedic testing, which are movements that we will perform with different joints of your body to decipher your diagnosis.
If you already have X-rays or a radiology report please bring them along. These assessments give us a better picture of your complete health.
Once we have made a diagnosis, and agreed on prescribed a course of treatment, then treatment usually begins. If we diagnose a condition more appropriately treated by another health care professional, we will make a referral.
