Your chiropractor will explain possible risks of treatment and discuss any concerns you may have prior to commencing with treatment.
On your second visit you will be given a full report of findings. The chiropractor will explain everything to you in detail: what is the cause of your symptoms, what can be done about it, how long will it take, how much treatment is required and how much will it cost.
A treatment plan will be tailored to suit your specific needs. In some cases dietary and lifestyle changes may be discussed and in most cases simple home exercises will be prescribed in order to maximise your healing potential. You will also be advised on how to best avoid future problems, aid your recovery and enjoy better health for life
Your first appointment is for an Initial Consultation and will take up to one hour. This will involve going through your past medical history, followed by a physical examination of the involved areas, together with a postural analysis and orthopaedic and neurological tests appropriate for your case. In most cases you will also be given a treatment on your first visit. The cost of this is £50.
Your second visit is your Report of Findings, detailing the results of your examination and explaining in more detail what is involved in getting you better. The report is free for you to keep. You will also receive a treatment on this visit. The total cost of your second appointment – as well as any follow-up treatment visits – is £40.
