First Visit

Brief Paperwork

Before entering the office, we have some paperwork that we will need for you to fill out. The paperwork provides us with information about yourself and your condition.

Informational Video

You will then watch a video that will further explain the Activator and the type of care you will receive as a patient.

Consultation

Once the paperwork has been completed, you will have a consultation with the doctor to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, as well as potential treatment options.

History and Examination

In order to determine what your actual problem is, the doctor will ask you various questions related to your condition. Next, a number of specialized scans will be performed to determine which areas affected and to what extent.

X-ray Studies

We generally do not require x-rays prior to starting your treamemnt, However, your specific condition may require us to take x-rays to either rule out more serious conditions or assist us in developing the most effective treatment plan for you.

Same Day Treatment

Once finished with the examination and all appropriate studies, patients will generally be provided with their first adjustment during this same visit.

Home Instructions

Prior to leaving, patients will be given instructions on certain activities or procedures to be conducted at home. This may include ice or heat application instructions, avoidance of certain activities or positions, as well as home exercises and/or stretches.

Schedule Your Next Appointment

You will be given a convenient appointment time for your follow-up visit. Generally speaking, patients are seen within 1-2 days, and then several times over the next several weeks, depending on your condition. Your appointment frequency will be determined by your condition.
