What Can I Expect During My First Visit to a Chiropractor? What to expect on your initial visit is being welcomed to the doctor's office and your doctor. The doctor will consult with you regarding any unwanted health conditions and your overall wellness. This consultation is your opportunity to express your health concerns and expectations, and to ask any questions. It is also for the Chiropractor to express his or her role in your health care and discuss your health prognosis. A physical exam will be performed and will include a surface EMG evaluation (which is a non-invasive diagnostic tool), a posture evaluation, and full spinal x-rays (unless x-rays are contraindicated) . The doctor will then review all of your diagnostic results with you, and let you know what he/she recommends regarding your specific conditions. Then, depending on your situation, the doctor may give you an adjustment and begin physical therapy, if needed. Adjustments shouldn't be painful, although you may feel some discomfort until the pressure in the joint is relieved. Depending on your condition, your Chiropractor may schedule a series of visits for care. |
