Your First Visit
New patients are always welcome. Here is a brief description of what to expect on your first visit to my office. Please allow approximately 45 minutes to perform the following:

Consultation / Exam:

Information is gathered to gain an understanding of the onset, duration and nature of your condition. You receive a thorough examination consisting of more than 50 Chiropractic, neurological, and orthopedic tests performed to determine the extent of your condition, and if your complaint may respond to Chiropractic care.

 

"The Chiropractor asks for symptoms that he may locate the cause of the ailment. The medical man inquires about infection in order to name the disease."

X-Rays:

If your consultation and examination findings indicate your condition may respond to Chiropractic care X-rays will be obtained. They are needed to verify the location of your subluxations. X-rays will also reveal any contraindications to Chiropractic care. If you have recent films of your spine X-rays will not be taken.

"Chiropractic seldom fails, and never does harm when properly handled."

First Adjustment:

Only after all the above information is gathered and analyzed will you receive your Chiropractic spinal adjustment. It involves a gentle thrust by hand only to the subluxated vertebrae in your spine.

"The more medicine one takes, the more must be taken. The smaller amount taken, the less needed. If none is taken, it is soon discovered that none is needed."

Forms:

Any time you go to a new doctor, you have to fill out forms. We have provided them here in either a single, or in individual PDF* files that you can print and fill out at your leisure, so that you can have them completed in advance to make the appointment quicker. 
*You will need Adobe Reader (free) to open and print these forms.
