WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT

Personal care and attention is given to each individual patient's needs.  You will find that the office has a fun and light atmosphere that fosters our healing attitude. A Patient Advocate/Chiropractic Assistant will guide you through all the initial paperwork steps and take you on a tour of the clinic to familiarize you with the facility. You will then meet with the doctor for a complete evaluation including an orthopedic and neurologic exam. The doctor will completely discuss your condition and plans for treatment with you. At the start of your treatment, the patient advocate will fully explain your insurance benefits to you and disclose any and all charges to you. 

A chiropractic adjustment is the art of using a specific force in a precise direction, applied to a joint that is fixated, "locked up",  or not moving properly. This adds motion to the joint., helping the bones gradually return to a more normal position and motion. The purpose of this safe and natural procedure is improved spinal function, improved nervous system function, and improved health.

Subluxation is when one or more vertebrae lose their normal position, they interfere with the nerves they were meant to protect. This interference can cause pressure or irritation on the spinal column. This misalignment of the vertebrae and pinching of the nerves is called subluxation and is the most common aspect of what doctors call the vertebral subluxation complex.
