Chiropractic Care
What is Chiropractic Care?
A hands-on, non-invasive practice that safely and effectively helps relieve pain and improve the body’s overall function. Chiropractic care utilizes various treatment options depending on your individual needs. From manual adjustment techniques, soft tissue therapy, exercise prescription, nutritional counseling and injury prevention strategies.
What to Expect on Your First Visit
After completing your intake forms, your doctor of chiropractic will complete a thorough history to better understand your current complaint(s), other health concerns, as well as your overall health status. They will then conduct a focused physical exam to further help them determine the cause of your complaint. After a diagnosis has been established, your chiropractor will explain it to you and discuss the various treatment/management options available. Your informed consent to treatment will be obtained before treatment begins.
