Hi, I am Dr. Jen! |
What Can I Expect During My First Visit to a Chiropractor?
Although each doctor' s process will vary, generally you can expect to complete a full medical history questionnaire and "new patient" paperwork. You will then consult with the doctor. This consultation is your opportunity to express your health concerns and expectations, and to ask any questions you may have pertaining to the matter. It is also for the Chiropractor to express her role in your health care and discuss your health prognosis. A physical exam will be performed which may include orthopedic testing, reflex assessments, muscle testing, and a specific Chiropractic evaluation. Dr. Jen will go over the results of the exam with you. Then, depending on your situation, the doctor may give you an adjustment, acupuncuture and/or begin other therapies, if needed. Adjustments shouldn't be painful, although you may feel some discomfort until the pressure in the joint is relieved. Dr. Jen utilized both the traditional Chiropractic manipulation and she also uses a light force technique called Activator Methods. Activator methods utilizes an instrument to help make the corrections to the joints in a comfortable manner. It is safe enough for infants and elderly with osteoporosis.
Depending on your condition, Dr. Jen may schedule a series of visits for care.
