On your first visit to our office, you will have some important forms to complete that will aid us in better understanding your particular condition.
The initial visit will give you an opportunity to consult with the doctor about your health-goals, concerns, and potential treatment options.
Each patient receives a thorough
examination with special focus on
any
functional limitations or
mechanical
stressors present.
The exam will include
relevant physical,
orthopedic, and
neurological tests to help
diagnose
the condition.
Once finished with the examination, and therapeutic goals are discussed and agreed upon, treatment may began that day. Treatments are individualized depending on the nature of the problem and the patient's response to care. Treatments may include myofascial release, joint manipulation or mobilization, stretching, rehabilitative exercises, ultrasound, or electric muscle stimulation. Recommendations may be made for nutritional, ergonomic or lifestyle changes to aid in the healing process.
You will be given a convenient appointment time for a follow up visit. Generally speaking, patients are seen with-in1-2 days after the initial visit.
All treatment options for your condition will be discussed at that time.
