Your initial chiropractic consultation focuses on gathering comprehensive health data to determine the exact cause of your pain and identify the most effective recovery strategy. Upon arrival, you will complete a questionnaire followed by a physical exam where the doctor assesses your musculoskeletal system. This assessment ensures that your treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs. Once the examination is complete, you are encouraged to receive your first chiropractic adjustment the same day. The primary goal of this care is to restore your range of motion and alleviate pain without the use of surgery or medication. Because recovery rates vary, your chiropractor will establish a specific frequency for follow-up visits and may adjust your treatment plan as you progress.
-
After undergoing a chiropractic adjustment, patients may experience a wide variety of physical responses as the body adapts to its new alignment. While many individuals enjoy immediate pain relief and enhanced mobility, others might encounter temporary discomfort similar to the soreness felt after exercising. It is also common to experience fatigue or symptoms of metabolic detoxification, such as headaches or mild nausea, as the nervous system recalibrates. These sensations typically indicate that the body is processing waste and healing, usually resolving within two days. Ultimately, these diverse reactions are a normal part of the recovery process as the body transitions toward better health.
