What Will My First Visit At Daniels Chiropractic Be Like?
Tell Your Story
We invite you to tell your story. Share with us what needs to get better and what relief you are hoping for. We listen to you and ask questions and we listen some more. We want to learn about how you're feeling, where you feel pain, discomfort, and immobility. We will give you time to explain your problem so that we can fully understand it.
And we want to know what your goals are. How do you want to feel after getting treatment at Daniels Chiropractic? Let us know your own health goals.
We will also ask several questions about things you haven’t mentioned. We do this because often there is information relevant to your condition that you might not readily think of as important to share.
So, we will ask a few probing questions to help us understand your condition and discern the underlying reason for your pain.
For example we may want to ask about your daily routines. Are you sitting down a lot for your job? Do you work on a computer for long stretches of time? How are you sleeping? Or, what kinds of things have you done before to help your pain?
We will also talk through your general medical history so that we have a good understanding of other things that might impact your health and current condition.
Get An Exam
Then we will do an exam.
The exam will be a series of hands-on tests to assess muscle, bone and joint function.
This is very similar to having a full physical with your primary care doctor or having an examination with a physical therapist or an orthopedic, if you are familiar with that. We do a lot of the same types of tests.
Will I Need An X-Ray?
Not every condition requires an x-ray. But sometimes an x-ray, MRI, or other imaging is needed in order to plan the best treatment. We will let you know on your first visit.
Discuss Your Recovery Options
During your first appointment you will get a clear explanation of what is wrong and what we can do for you going forward.
You may also wonder:
How Soon Can I Get Treated?
We like to start the treatment during that same visit so that we can get you on the road to recovery as quickly as possible.
Is Chiropractic Care Right For Me?
When you come into our Daniels Chiropractic office here in Racine, Wisconsin the first thing we want to do is make sure that you are in the right place.
Our goal at Daniels Chiropractic is to help you feel, move, and live better and we know that chiropractic care is extremely beneficial. But we understand it is not always what is most beneficial to our patients.
If we are not the best solution to you getting better, we refer you to someone who is. Our strong network of providers collaborate for optimal care for our patients. We may refer you to your primary care provider or to a specialist such as a physical therapist, massage therapist, pain specialist, orthopedic surgeon, or neurologist.
Go home with a plan
We want you to understand what we will do in the office to care for your condition and how you can accelerate your healing at home with stretches, exercises, ice, and heat.
If you are interested, we can discuss nutrition and supplements to fortify your efforts.
