What happens at a first chiropractic visit?
Brief paperwork
You fill in a short form about you and your problem. You can save time by filling it in at home.
A talk with the doctor
You and the doctor talk about where it hurts, how long it has hurt and what you have tried.
History and exam
The doctor asks more questions and does hands-on tests to see which areas are affected and how much.
X-rays
An X-ray is a picture of your bones. The doctor takes X-rays to find out if your problem can be helped and to plan your care.
Home care
Before you leave, you get simple instructions, such as ice or heat, positions to avoid, and stretches.
Your next visit
Your follow-up is usually 1 to 2 days later. The doctor goes over the full findings and your care options.
