What can you expect when you first book in?
Consultation
The primary aim of the first visit is to establish the cause of your pain and come to a diagnosis. Your practitioner will begin by taking a full case history. This will involve an in depth discussion about the pain or complaint that may have brought you to the clinic, but also about your past medical history. This will enable your practitioner to ensure that care is appropriate for your condition.
Your details are confidential, no one else will be able to see your notes without your express permission.
Examination
Once your case history is complete your practitioner will perform a thorough examination. Gowns are available for you to wear during the examination and any subsequent treatments.
Treatment
Treatment is tailored to the individual and mainly involves specific spinal manipulation to free joints in the spine or other related areas which are not moving correctly. A ‘popping’ or ‘clicking’ sound may follow as a short, precise impulse is applied by hand. This is simply the result of bubbles of gas released in the fluid of the joint because of the brief change in pressure within the joint and is generally painless.
In addition to manipulation a variety of other techniques may be used if your condition requires, these can include, cranial-sacral therapy, trigger point therapy, dry needling, taping, instrument assisted soft tissue massage and rehabilitation exercise.
