What Should You Expect on Your First Visit With Us?
At Lopez Chiropractic Center our examinations
procedures are geared toward detection and correction of the
"Vertebral Subluxation" (click on this
link for more information on subluxations). The
procedures we use are therefore specifically selected for your
spine and nervous system health. There are a couple of things
that you should expect when you have a first visit at our clinic.
Spinal
X-rays may be taken depending
on your age, and situation. There are many reasons why we would
not
take x-rays on certain patients including pregnancy, most
children, recent usable spinal x-rays and some other various
situations. Aside from these situations, x-rays are a common part
of the examination process when looking for vertebral subluxations.
X-rays give us important information including the position of the
spinal bones, and the quality of the spine and safety of adjusting
it. X-rays also tell us the relative length of time subluxations
may have been involved in your spine. Commonly, most patients
receive three spinal x-rays at the beginning of care.
With this important information we can make
a more accurate determination of the type of adjustments your
spine needs as well as the initial frequency of your care. Your
x-rays we be explained to you and covered in detail at your Report
of Findings.
You will be scheduled for your Report of
Findings within a few days of
your initial visit. This visit is your
most important visit and may take up to one hour. It is
at your Report of Findings that we will give you a care plan and
go over any special instructions you will need to obtain the best
and fastest possible results. We have set aside specific times for
these visits so as not to interfere with regular patient care
hours. Our staff schedule your Report of Findings with you after
your first visit.
Our
Chiropractic Care at Lopez Chiropractic Center utilizes
the most modern chiropractic analytical, and
adjustive procedures and equipment available. We consider
subluxations to be a serious threat to the quality and quantity of
your health and that of your family. It is therefore imperative
that we utilize the most modern, and the well established
time-proven procedures to help you. We feel your worth it!
