WHAT TO EXPECT ON YOUR FIRST VISIT

Many people considering chiropractic care are concerned about what they should expect to experience when they visit the doctor.

Complete Your Patient Forms

Before your first appointment begins, you will need to fill out our new patient forms. You can download them from this website (insert link here), or fill them out in our office. These forms help us to know about your medical and health history before we start.

Touring Our Office

Next, we will put you at ease with our office. To keep things fun and familiar, we’ll give you a complete tour of our facility. During this tour, we’ll educate you about chiropractic care and adjustments, we’ll explain the history of the techniques we use and how realigning your spine can help improve your health.

We’ll show you where the adjustment rooms are, the diagnostic imaging areas and even the restrooms. We encourage you to ask questions during this tour, whether general questions about chiropractic or specific questions about our facility, techniques and Dr. Cody Dessellier.

Consultation

After your tour, you will sit down for a one-on-one consultation.. We’ll talk about your health goals, review your paperwork, discuss any concerns you have and address any current pains or symptoms you might be experiencing.

HRV

The first tool we use is a NASA published technology heart rate variability test. Heart Rate Variability (HRV) testing is today’s gold standard to analyze the overall effects of stress and anxiety in patients of any age. Lifestyle stress and subluxations affect the balance of the Autonomic Nervous System and can impact your ability to adapt to the stresses life throws at us. Research has concluded that lower and unbalanced HRV readings can be improved dramatically with chiropractic care.

Spinal Exam

We then do a full spinal examination to see where structural shifts and subluxations may have occurred. The doctor does so by palpating along your spine to figure out exactly how each bone has misaligned.

Diagnostic Imaging

Though not all patients require this, for most, the next step is imaging. After we’ve done all other exams, we’ll work to get to the root of what’s wrong through diagnostic and digital imaging services. This will allow us to get a more detailed view of your skeletal system and spine to look for imbalances and abnormalities.

Individualized Plan of Chiropractic Care

After your complete assessment, including your consultation, HRV, spinal exam and any necessary imaging are complete; you will be scheduled for a follow-up visit. When you return, we will discuss the findings with you, and Dr. Cody will present you with a customized and personalized plan of action for chiropractic care that will approach your specific needs. Most importantly this is when you will receive your first adjustment.
