Patient Forms
Upon entering our office, our receptionist will greet you and welcome you as a member of our family. We will request you fill out the patient forms located in the New Patient Center. This paperwork provides us with general information about your and your condition.
Consultation
Next you will have a consultation with one of the doctors to discuss your health-related problems and concerns, as well as potential treatment options. Your first visit is designed for the Doctors to learn more about you, your condition and expectations, and to determine whether chiropractic care meets your goals.
Examination
After your consultation, Dr. Harvey or Dr. Wright will perform a complete chiropractic examination testing your reflexes, your ability to turn and bend as well as other standard neurological, orthopedic, postural and physical examinations. Nothing will be done in our office without your consent.
X-Ray Studies
Your specific condition may require us to take x-rays to get a full evaluation. X-rays help us rule out more serious conditions and assist us in developing the most effective treatment plan for you. Most people are amazed once they see their x-rays and often can immediately identify their misalignments and degeneration.
Report of Findings
Once all the information and examinations have been performed, one of the doctors will give you a report of findings to answer these four most popular questions:
- Can you help me?
- What is my problem?
- How long will it take?
- How much will it cost?
After discussing your history and goals with you, examining your spine and reviewing any x-rays or tests, the doctors will discuss recommendations with you. If you have a condition that requires care with other providers, the doctor will tell you. If the doctors believe they can help you, they will recommend a specific treatment program for correction and wellness.
Adjustment
Patients generally will receive their first treatment, which chiroprators call adjustments, at the conclusion of the first appointment. This may include spinal adjustments, physical therapies and/or soft tissue therapies. Care is interactive with you, so you can express any concerns you have about the style of adjustment you will be most comfortable with.
Wellness Program 
Prior to leaving, patients will be instructed on an at-home wellness program. If you are in pain when you first come into our office, this may include ice or heat application instructions, avoidance of certain activities or positions, as well as home exercises and/or stretches. If you desire an overall wellness lifestyle, our wellness team will work with you to create good habits and routines that will support your success. Every body is unique and different; therefore, everyone requires a unique and customized wellness plan. The foundation of our overall wellness lifestyle is maintaining healthy posture, good spinal alignment, eating a healthy diet, taking supplements, keeping your weight under control and stress relief. Our overall goal is to improve the quality of your life
