Welcome to Active Family Chiropractic!
What to Expect on your First Visit
Upon arrival you will be warmly greeted by our amazing front desk staff, who will take your paperwork and then give you a tour of our beautiful office so you know where things are and what to expect. They then will take you to the Exam Room where the doctor will first meet with you to begin the consultation and exam, which incorporates many aspects, but with three main categories.
First our doctors will go over an extensive history with you in regards to your current and past health challenges, if any. Second, we will spend time explaining how chiropractic wellness care works, and specifically how things are done in our office. We strongly feel that the more we know about you, and the more you know about us, the more we can help, and that is our primary mission.
The third component is likely the most important, and is begun once the consultation is done. This component is our comprehensive examination. The exam done at our office is very thorough and expansive, allowing us to figure out exactly what is going on with your health, and what the true cause of your challenges are.
Your Second Visit
On your second visit to our office, you and our doctor will discuss your exam and answer two questions:
- What is the CAUSE of your issue?
- Can our office help you?
If we determine that chiropractic care is a good fit for you, we will also discuss with you how long your treatment will last, a personalized schedule (based on your exam findings and severity of your condition) and the cost associated with your care. Once we have discussed everything associated with your care, and you choose to continue, you will officially begin active care in our office.
We like to be upfront with our expectations on how quickly we expect results and any costs associated. It is our goal to be as transparent as possible, so that you will have a truly excellent experience in our office!
Ongoing visits
We understand that you have a busy schedule and we believe that visits to our office should be fast, easy and pleasant. Most patients that visit our office experience next to no wait time and we try to see you as soon as you are checked in.
After you are checked in you will be walked back to our open adjusting room where Dr. Steph or Dr. Murdock will do an assessment to determine what adjustments are necessary for that appointment.
Once he has determined the care that you will need for that visit he will perform the adjustments and work with you on any additional stretching or soft tissue work that you need.
Before you finish you will always have an opportunity to ask questions and discuss any detail pertinent to your continued care.
Typically we like to keep these visits as simple as possible and most visits are completed within 15 minutes.
