The Wholistic Health Centre team is ready to warmly welcome you and make you feel at ease. We understand that you may be in pain and do all we can to help you relax before the chiropractor sees you promptly for your appointment.
You’re welcome to complete your new patient paperwork before your appointment by downloading it from our website. When you arrive, we’ll review your form with you before your consultation begins.
We’ll then sit down with you to discuss your medical history, including your current concern, family history, and overall health. This is followed by a thorough examination, which may include:
If X-rays are required, we’ll refer you to a nearby imaging facility. Once your examination is complete, we’ll explain our findings and discuss the most appropriate next steps. Where clinically appropriate, treatment will be offered on the day.
Please allow approximately 40 minutes for your initial visit.
At this appointment, we’ll take time to talk through your initial consultation and how you felt afterward. Your feedback is important to us and helps guide your care. Based on this discussion, we may gently modify the treatment approach if needed, and further treatment will be offered, always with your comfort and goals in mind.
The first stage you are in when you begin seeing us is called passive care. Your visits are more regular, and we complete exercises or discuss other aspects of your care in the clinic. You take something away to do at home on each visit, building on what you have learned. We may discuss nutrition, rehailitation exercises or lifestyle advice.
As you begin feeling better, and your pain or other symptoms diminish, the frequency of your visits will reduce. More of your treatment is completed in the comfort of your own home, and you have entered a phase of care we call active care.
We are happy to answer any questions you might have about starting care at our clinic. Find your closest clinic location and start your wellness journey today.
