First Mornington Chiropractic Visit
You will be warmly welcomed and made to feel at home. Help is on its way!
New patients often remark how ‘welcoming’ our practice is; that’s good, because our goal is to create a warm, friendly, and comfortable environment. Please make yourself at home.
Make Yourself at Home
You’ll find plenty of convenient parking and and our practice is pram and wheelchair friendly. We also have a special kids’ area in our reception.
The purpose of your consultation with the doctor is to discuss your health situation and see if chiropractic is likely to help you. If it looks promising, a thorough examination will help identify the possible cause of your problem.
Examination
Our practice members often comment on how thorough our examination is.
We will perform a thorough examination incorporating orthopaedic, neurological, and chiropractic tests. We will look at how you bend and move and palpate your spine and possibly other joints like shoulders, knees etc…we will always be as gentle as possible.
In adults we may need to refer you for x-rays or occasionally CT or MRI imaging. X-rays are typically not required with children. This information helps us identify the cause or causes of your problem. Sometimes we can adjust you on this visit, although often the results of further tests are required before we can begin.
Please allow 60 minutes for this visit.
