What can I expect on the first visit?
Chiropractic care is divided into two parts: Spinal analysis and spinal adjustment.
Your spine is analyzed using various tools such as our hands (motion palpation), kinesiology (muscle testing), various orthopedic, and neurological exams. Once we have located the precise area of your subluxation, we will then do a procedure to correct or eliminate the subluxation called a chiropractic spinal adjustment. X-rays are not required in our office unless concerning findings arise. We recommend that you bring any x-rays/MRI/CT Scans/Blood work or related reports from other practitioners.
What is Muscle Testing?
Muscle testing is a non-invasive method of evaluating the body for imbalances and assessing its needs. Our muscles can become stronger or weaker in response to many internal and external influences. The general strength or weakness provides information on energy flow within the body based on traditional Chinese medicine. Muscle testing is performed by applying slight pressure to an outstretched arm and assessing the strength of the muscle response.
Three Prases of Chiropractic Care
1. Initial Intensive Care Phase:
In this phase your spine is out of balance and not holding its adjustment. Please cooperate by keeping your appointments and modifying your lifestyle in ways that will help you get you out of the intensive care phase quickly.
2. Foundation and Healing Phase:
Your spine is beginning to stabilize and hold its adjustment for longer periods. In this phase, our objective is to monitor your spine as it strengthens. Many of your symptoms and complaints may have disappeared or decreased in this phase. It is critical however that you continue your visits even if you are feeling better.
3. Wellness Phase:
In this phase, your spine is now holding its adjustment and has become reasonably stable. It is handling stress well. Regular care not only keeps you subluxation-free but gives you greater physical and emotional health and more enjoyment you get out of life.
Chiropractic care has proven to be a safe, natural, drugless way to good health for millions of people around the world. Please pass on this chiropractic message to friends and family so they may come in for a spinal check-up. It could make a difference between health and disease.
