2. Case History

The Chiropractor will go through the form with you in detail. This is an opportunity to talk about your health related problems and concerns. We will listen to you and give you space.

3. Chiropractic Physical Exam

After the discussion, the Chiropractor will complete a physical examination. This is a hands on assessment so the Chiropractor can find out what is going on with your body. Nothing will be done without a full explanation and consent.

4. Report of Findings

Depending on the circumstances, this appointment may be done on the same day as the exam or another day enabling the Chiropractor time to reflect, do further tests, scans and write up what has been found.

After the exam is complete and any other assessments or scans have been taken the Chiropractor will walk you through what has been found, how and if Chiropractic can help, the suggested schedule and fees.
