Head-To-Toe Evaluation
W hether you have never been to a chiropractor, or you’ve been from A-Z in the yellow pages, your first visit with us will include a confidential one-on-one consultation to discuss your primary concerns and goals. Be sure to arrive early to relax and have a clear mind before your appointment. If you have any imaging like MRI or x-ray you can bring that to this first meeting.
After the confidential consultation, a detailed exam will be performed to the area of interest as well as an upper cervical neurological exam. If additional imaging is needed, it will be obtained at this time.
This should give us enough information to evaluate the health and function of the nervous system and the body in general.
We are looking for a pattern of interference between the brain and the body, most often seen with a misalignment of the vertebrae. As this first meeting is meant to gather information and throughly assess the situation, be prepared to schedule a second appointment to initiate care. A report will be presented at the second meeting describing the findings and recommended course of action.

Clear Objectives and Outcomes
A care plan will be prepared taking into account the nature of your situation, the findings during the exam and your particular goals. The plan will give us a direction in care with specific objectives to keep us on track. Because of the compensations that are commonly created in your body due to the misalignment, you may have developed certain habits that we will start to unlearn. We will have re-exams frequently to check progress and review our goals.
As you entrust us with your care, we will do all we can to promote your health, help you to enhance the quality of life and be there to prevent the deterioration of chronic conditions. We want to encourage you to make educated decisions about your health. Our mission is to allow the body to restore the normal function of every nerve, organ and system. Healing from within – as you were designed.
