Your first visit
You will need to arrive about 10 minutes before your appointment
to give yourself some time to complete a little paperwork. After
this you will be invited to watch a short video which explains a
little about chiropractic and what you can expect during your initial
consultation.
You will then be able to talk about your particular
problem(s) with the chiropractor who will take a detailed case history.
After this
you will be given a thorough examination. You will be able to change
in privacy and all female patients are given a gown to wear.
After the examination the chiropractor will give you a diagnosis
and recommend treatment if appropriate. If you are in severe pain
we may be able to start treatment straight away. If x-rays or other
tests are necessary this will also be explained. On your next visit
the chiropractor will explain everything about your problem in
detail and exactly what treatment will include, and they will give
you advice
about what you can do to help yourself. The chiropractor will outline
how many treatments you are likely to need and how quickly you
can expect to feel better.
You will be given plenty of opportunity to ask questions and you
will be given a “Report Of Findings” booklet explaining
everything about your condition to take home. If we can’t help you then we will be happy to refer you to
your GP or onto another specialist.
