Your First Visit with us is very similar whether you book in for Chiropractic or Osteopathy.
The aim of both Chiropractic and Osteopathy is to restore normal function to your joints, muscles and nervous system. Coupled with this, our goal is to get you back to doing the things you love and to keep you doing them.
We will ask questions about your general medical history and have a discussion about what has brought you to us. This is an important stage as it gives us an idea how your pain or complaint came about, and clues about how to manage it and prevent it from happening as often in the future. When you book in you will have an option to fill in the paperwork online prior to your visit.
After the case history we then do the physical examination which includes neurological and orthopaedic tests. For ease of movement we tend to need access to the area so it's a good idea to wear loose fitting clothes.
This is when we have a review of the findings from the examination (the diagnosis) and discuss what we can do to help. We develop an individual treatment plan for you which will let you know how many treatments it may take and what to expect during each session.
If we don't think that we can help then we will refer you to an appropriate health professional or to your GP.
Unless we have to perform extra investigations we are usually able to treat on your first visit.
If we do not have enough time for treatment or if we have to refer for further investigations then we will book in your first treatment on an alternate day free of charge.
Our sessions typically last for 20-30 minutes and include a progress review, treatment, and exercises/advice. The treatment can consist of soft tissue massage, joint manipulation and joint mobilisation. We mainly use a 'hands on' form of chiropractic called Diversified Technique and can cater for many different needs and preferences.
