Initial Consultation
Your first visit is an opportunity for us to learn about you, starting with a thorough history taking. Your lifestyle, previous trauma and everyday stressors can help to highlight the root cause of your dysfunction. We assess your posture, gait and movement, alongside range of motion measuring flexibility and limitations. When necessary we use neurological and orthopaedic tests to rule in and out diagnoses. X-rays can be a useful tools for diagnosis and chiropractic analysis, should these be required. A full Spinal Exam is perfomed, as we analyse for areas of nervous system stress; imbalance and joint restriction. If appropriate, your first chiropractic adjustment will be performed.
Report of Findings
Your Second visit, the Report of Findings, is your review session. We discuss the results from your initial consultation, and your Chiropractor will explain what was found, why the dysfunction may have developed, your personalised care plan with home care recommedations and a review of any imaging results. This sessions ensures you have a clear understanding of the roadmap for achieving your health and wellness goals.
Tracking Progress
To ensure measureable outomes, at certain stages throughout your care plan we re-test your initial findings. We refine and optimise your care plan further, for optimal healing.
X-Ray Analysis
X-Rays are a valuable tool for assessing the health of your spine. Chiropractors utilise them for analysis of alignment, indicating where and how to best adjust segments of the spine. X-rays are also useful for revealing postural changes, degeneration and ruling out pathologies. At your initial consultation, should X-ray be required, we refer externally for these – often to our affiliate provider, Pacific Radiology.
