YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT
  • Patient Forms
Upon entering our office, our receptionist will welcome you and give you paperwork to  complete. This paperwork provides us with your health history and information on your condition.

If you are coming in for an injury related to an auto accident or workers compensation case, there will be additional forms to fill out. Please arrive 15 minutes early to your appointment so you have enough time to complete the paperwork before you see Dr. James.

If you have a PPO insurance, we will make a copy of your card and will check on your chiropractic benefits while you are here in the office.
  • Consultation
Next, you will have a consultation with Dr. James to discuss your health-
related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options. This initial visit is designed for Dr. James to learn more about you, your condition, and expectations to determine how chiropractic care can meet your goals.
  • Examination
After your consultation, Dr. James will perform a complete chiropractic examination testing your reflexes and flexibility. Other standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical tests may be performed as
well. 
  • X-Ray Studies
X-rays are not required as part of our treatment. However, depending on your specific condition, Dr. James may recommend X-rays as well.  X-rays help us develop  the most effective treatment plan for you, and alert us of  any serious spinal conditions. Most people are amazed once they see their X-rays up close. In some cases, they can even identify their misalignments 
and degeneration themselves.
  • Report of Findings
Once the information is collected and examinations are performed, Dr. James will give discuss with you all findings and answer any questions including: 
  1. How can you help me?
  2. How often do I need to come in?
  3. What  will  my treatment cost?
After reviewing your health history, goals, and examining your spine, Dr. James will discuss recommendations and notify you if your condition  requires care with other providers. Dr. James will  provide the best treatment plan for your needs.
  • Treatment
At the conclusion of this initial  appointment, you can choose to experience your first treatment. This may include spinal adjustments, physical therapy, and/or soft tissue massage. Treatment is interactive, so you can express 
concerns about the different styles of treatment  anytime.
