What to Expect
Initial Consultation
In this appointment our chiropractors will take a thorough medical and lifestyle history to help understand your current health challenges. They will then carry out a full chiropractic examination which will help determine the cause of your health challenge and how chiropractic care can help deal with this. Additionally, our Dundee clinic has X-ray facilities on site if required.
Your first appointment typically lasts around 60 minutes.
Report of Findings
Following your initial appointment, your chiropractor will then review and evaluate your case. Based on these findings a personalised care plan will be created. We will discuss with you your current health challenges and explain how chiropractic can help overcome these.
You will then be able to start care.
Your second appointment typically lasts 30 minutes.
Treatment Sessions
Following your report of findings session, you can then receive your first adjustment. The chiropractor will use different techniques best suited to your needs. Most commonly this will be hands on adjustments of the spine.
They will explain fully what to expect as treatment progresses and will often suggest some rehabilitation exercises when suitable.
Maintenance Care
Many patients decide to continue with care after their initial care plan is complete to ensure their body continues to feel and function at its best. This is known as maintenance care.
Re-Examination
These appointments are used for existing patients who have not had an appointment with us within the last 6 months.
Wellness Talk
We invite and encourage all new patients to attend one of our free Chiropractic Wellness talks which are given at the clinic. Typically, we find that those patients who have a good understanding of how chiropractic works tend to see the best results.
We aim for this 30 minute talk to be one of the most valuable appointments you attend as it will cover how you can assist your body to heal as effectively and efficiently as possible and help it stay well going forward.
These talks are open not only to new patients but anyone you feel may benefit from learning more about chiropractic, such as family members or friends. We would just ask that you let reception know if you or anyone else would like to attend.
