What can expect at the first visit?

During the first visit we will conduct a detailed interview and examination, including neurological, orthopedic and chiropractic examination. In addition, we may conduct a computer EMG spinal scan to determine the degree of your problem. Based on the information, we can also order additional investigations like an x-ray or MRI scan. At the second visit, we will explain the cause of your problem and perform first chiropractic treatment. Each patient will receive an individual plan of care based on the presenting problem and examination results.

How long will it take to get better?

Duration of treatment depends on the problem and examination results and can range from a few to several sessions. In our clinic we constantly monitor patient?s progress for the best effectiveness of individual treatment plan.
