What to expect
Prepare for your first visit to take around 45 minutes. You will speak at length to your doctor about the pain you're experiencing. The first visit also includes an extensive physical and neurological examination. By the end of your visit you should:
-
Understand the source of your problem
-
Understand how long it generally takes to get better
-
Outline your treatment plan
-
Feel encouraged to return to normal activities when the time is appropriate
What to bring
Complete required paperwork
Prior to your visit, you will be required to fill out the necessary forms before the doctor can see you. You can access these forms ahead of time at home to save some time in the office. You can find these forms below.
It is normal that you will begin treatment on the first visit. Often this includes gentle movements on dysfunctional areas that are diagnosed through your exam, as well as a number of detailed instructional exercises that will aid you in between visits. Short impulses may also be applied to joints that may cause a "pop" or "click". Overall this will help:
-
Improve movement and balance
-
Increase strength and confidence
-
Reduce pain and muscle spasm
-
Restore Optimal function
