What Can I Expect During My First Visit to a Chiropractor?

You can expect to complete a full "medical history" questionnaire and "new patient" paperwork. You will then consult with the doctor. This consultation is your opportunity to express your health concerns and expectations, and to ask any questions you may have pertaining to the matter. It is also a time for Dr. Moss to express his role in your health care and discuss your health prognosis. A physical exam will be performed which may include orthopedic testing, posture and motion assessments, muscle testing, and a specific Chiropractic evaluation. In some cases x-rays may be necessary to determine an exact diagnosis and will be taken at the office. Usually, you are gowned only for the x-rays. Dr. Moss will go over the results of the exam and x-rays with you. Then, depending on your situation, you may be given 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, the doctor will schedule a series of visits for care.
