Chiropractic Care: What to expect

  • Connect Spinal Health's x-ray machine

If getting out of pain and achieving your health and wellbeing goals in a supportive environment is important to you then you will love Connect Spinal Health.

Our team is dedicated to helping you heal and get back those things that are missing in your life.

1 – Your First Appointment

Consultation –  The first visit typically lasts up to 30 minutes. Your chiropractor will chat with you about the pain and symptoms you are experiencing. You will have time to talk about how it’s really affecting you, your life, what it stops you from doing now and how it could affect your future. Your chiropractor will then undertake an examination and assessment of you and your spine.

Examination -  They will do key diagnostic tests as well as a posture assessment.

If X-rays are required your chiropractor will discuss this with you.

All information is gathered at this appointment so that a tailored plan can be put together to achieve your goals.

2 – Your Report of Findings Appointment

Your Results – The second appointment, usually 1-3 days later, lasts 30 minutes. Your chiropractor will go through your findings from your first visit, your personal goals, what we recommend is the best plan of care for you, how long we expect it to take and how much it will cost. There is plenty of opportunity for questions.

First Adjustment – If you are happy with everything that is discussed in this appointment you will then be able to start care and receive your first adjustment in this appointment, which is included in the fee. Your first “adjustment” to your spine is the gentle start on your journey to better health. Most patients feel better to varying degrees after their first adjustment, However, it is possible to feel a little stiff the following day as the body adjusts to using your muscles in the correct way.

3 – Your Get Better Results Faster Chiropractic Talk

All of our new patients are invited and encouraged to attend our in-house Chiropractic wellbeing talk, “Get Better Results Faster”, held every fortnight on Tuesdays 5.45pm. We find that patients who have a fuller understanding of how Chiropractic care works get the best results, ultimately getting well faster and staying well for longer.
In this 30 minute talk we explain what our patients can do to help their bodies heal and get better through this journey. We aim for these talks to be the most valuable appointment you have ever been to, giving you full insight into how pain works and how problems can be connected.
These talks are open and we welcome anyone who would like to attend, even as an introduction to Chiropractic. We like patients to bring a friend or family member along, just let our reception team know
