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

Although each patients process will vary, generally you can expect to complete a full medical history questionnaire and "new patient" paperwork. You will then consult with the doctor. 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 Chiropractor to express his role in your health care and discuss your health prognosis. A physical exam will be performed which may include orthopedic testing, reflex assessments, muscle testing, nerve scans, and a specific Chiropractic evaluation. In some cases x-rays may be necessary to determine an exact diagnosis. Your Chiropractor will go over the results of the exam and x-rays with you. The doctor will then give you an optimal treatment plan for your specific condition. Then, depending on your situation, the doctor may give you an adjustment and/or begin physical therapy, if needed.
