What does a first visit look like?

Once your initial examination is scheduled, you will receive an email with pertinent demographic, insurance, health history, and chief complaint information. This questionnaire is submitted securely through our secure patient portal, so your information is always safe with us! If you do not utilize email, please be prepared to arrive at your appointment 15 minutes ahead of time.
Upon your arrival at your initial exam, our front desk team will assist you and will likely ask for insurance information and photo ID so that we can keep your identity yours.
Once your scheduled provider is ready, you will have a one-on-one consultation with the provider (often assisted by one of our licensed chiropractic assistants), followed by a comprehensive examination to identify the damage, dysfunction, compensation mechanisms, etc., to best individualize your treatment. Findings will be discussed with you, and unless contraindicated, treatment will likely be provided after the examination. Referrals or other testing may also be indicated and facilitated by our front desk team.
The initial examination, including consultation, assessment, and treatment, typically lasts between 45-60 minutes. Please plan accordingly.

What does chiropractic have to do with sports rehabilitation?

Our providers have backgrounds working with athletic populations while specializing in chiropractic adjustments integrated with soft tissue techniques and therapeutic exercises. Our approach to care involves assessing functional movement patterns and identifying compensations patterns caused by or resulting in injury. Utilizing and integrating these techniques allow us to address chronic repetitive motion injuries and rehabilitate acute injuries.
