Consultation
​During your first visit, you’ll have a private consultation with Dr. Smith to discuss your current concerns, health conditions, and possible treatment options. This time is designed to help the doctors get to know you, set expectations, and determine how chiropractic care can help you achieve your health goals.
​
X-Rays
​Your safety is our top priority! In most cases, X-rays will be taken during your first visit. These images will help us develop the most effective treatment plan for your needs. This process will also make us aware of any serious spinal conditions.
Physical Exam
Following your consultation and x-rays, your doctor will complete a physical exam that includes assessing your range of motion, reflexes, and muscle strength. They’ll pay close attention to specific areas of pain or discomfort discussed during your consultation.
Customized Treatment Plan
After your initial evaluation is complete, we’ll schedule a follow up visit within 1-3 days after your first appointment. This time will allow Dr. Smith to review the findings from your examination and create a treatment plan customized for your needs.
