The Chiropractic New Patient Exam + First Treatment is a 45 – 60 minute evaluation and treatment. If you are seeking treatment by one of our talented chiropractors for the first time or have not seen either of them in 12 months or longer, this should be the appointment you book first.
What To Expect at Your Chiropractic New Patient Exam
Your Chiropractic New Patient Exam will begin with an intake of your chief complaints, which are typically the reason you are seeking chiropractic care. After a comprehensive health history review, your Doctor of Chiropractic will begin a physical in order to determine the cause of your symptoms. Once the history and review are complete, the treatment and adjustment will begin. The doctor will give you advice on what to do next, which often includes hydration, ice, rest, stretches, massage, or other exercises.
Chiropractic Care is much like other forms of therapy or exercise, the more committed you are to your plan, the more likely you are to reach your desired results.
Chiropractic Treatment Modalities
There are many tools and treatments our chiropractors may use on you depending on your needs. These treatments include but are not limited to: adjustments of the spine or other joints, myofascial release, therapeutic stretching, ultrasound therapy, kinesiology taping, scraping techniques, prescriptive exercises, functional movement screenings, nutrition consultation, heat or ice therapy, and more.
*Very Important: At the time of booking, please discuss the type of massage or other service you are expecting when you schedule your appointment. This will ensure we match you with the most appropriate staff member for your needs.
We require a Credit Card on file to schedule any appointment at MTW. If you need to reschedule, please notify the office at least 24 hours prior to your appointment start time to avoid the Late Cancellation Fee. When possible, our massage therapists prefer to receive cash tips or tips through Venmo. We can also help you with gratuity on a card at the front desk.
