What should I expect during my first chiropractic appointment/physical therapy session at Okinawa Sports and Spinal ?
Every case is different and we take the time time to make sure the approach is right for you.
Usually an initial appointment involves taking a detailed clinic history to try understand how your problem is affecting you, then we move onto an orthopedic assessment to try and see what joints are affecting and also do some further testing to help confirm a clinical suspicion. When appropriate we will also move on to manual therapy and exercise prescription in the first visit.
It’s worth allowing up to an hour for your first visit although simpler cases may not require that much time. We also take the time to discuss your goals so that the treatment plan becomes a collaborative approach.
