New Patients
Let’s Get Started
Your first visit in our office will consist of a thorough consultation and comprehensive examination. We will discuss your condition in depth and note current pain, health and family history, and past traumas. We then proceed with an orthopedic neurological examination.
At that point, we will take digital x-rays in our office if needed and follow with an adjustment as well as any therapies needed for pain management.
Auto accident patients are typically not adjusted on the first visit as we like to have ample time to review test results to put together the best care plan for your needs.
This first visit takes about 30-45 minutes and the second visit is generally scheduled for the following day.
The Second Visit
You will return for your second appointment to meet with doctor and discuss your opinions on and reactions to your first visit. At this appointment, a personalized and unique in-office treatment plan will be determined as well as a thorough at-home icing and stretching routine.
At this visit, your doctor will make specific recommendations for your care and lay out a roadmap of the results you can expect to achieve over the course of the following appointments.
Regular Visits
Regular visits are important to maintaining results and keeping the body at its optimal level of health. These visits only take about 10-20 minutes to complete, but are as necessary to peak physical performance as regular dental visits are to oral health. Your doctor will use this time for adjustments, as well as general health advice such as sleep posture tips, workstation ergonomics, and proper ways to lift. Come prepared with questions and concerns and ready to receive any necessary therapies.
Auto Accident Second Visit
On your second visit, we’ll go over the results of your tests and X-rays, showing you exactly where any damage to your spine is present and what stage of degeneration it’s in. If you’re in agreement, we can begin care this same day, which may include a chiropractic adjustment as well as additional modalities like ultrasound therapy to reduce pain and inflammation, stretching, intersegmental traction, or electrical muscle stimulation.
