Your First Visit
On your first visit, we take a history to find out the nature of your problem. We need to know what you have and have not done to get it resolved. This stage in the introduction process allows me to curate a plan suited to the exact needs of your pain so that we can choose the best methods to give you relief.
Your time is valuable. Your health even more so. By learning your health history, we can more effectively and accurately diagnose and treat your pain, so you will get better quickly.
Prior to the consultation, the doctor will review your case history. During the consultation, the Doctor will ask you a number of questions regarding the history of your condition, other Doctors you may have seen and your current symptoms.
Our intention is to treat your body as a whole, not just the symptom. During this process, we determine the root cause of your pain.
These images can help reveal pathologies, document the history of your spinal health, and guide your doctor in creating a care program based on your unique spinal condition.
We review the results of your health exam. If necessary, we recommend an easy-to-follow plan to reduce pain and improve your longterm health.
Vitamins
We use vitamins to help regulate organ systems that have become dysfunctional. Our product of choice is Standard Process, but we also use DeeCee labs and Biotics. Vitamin imbalances occur when patients have chronic health conditions supplementing the deficiency they help bring nutritional levels back to a normal range which in turn allows the organ system to better.
