Report of Findings
Once the information is collected and examinations are studied, Dr. Kris Arnold will give you a detailed report of all findings and answer any questions including:
- How can you help me?
- How often do I need to come in?
- What will my treatment cost?
After reviewing your health history, goals, and examining your nervous system and computer scans, the doctor will discuss recommendations and notify you if your condition requires care with other providers. He will provide you the best treatment and wellness program for your needs.
Adjustment
At the conclusion of this appointment, you can choose to experience your first chiropractic adjustment. Dr. Kris utilizes a no-force adjustment style that is performed without any twisting or cracking. Many patients fall asleep during an adjustment becasue it is so relazing and soothing.
An instrument called the Arthrostim is used to provide the adjustments. It provides a gentle impulse to the nervous system to correct subluxation. We have used this tool with great success with infants, children, adolescents, adults, professional athletes, the frail and infirm, and the elderly.
Wellness Program
Prior to leaving, the doctor will suggest a wellness program to incorporate outside of treatment. If you are in pain when you first come into our office this may include:
ice or heat application instructions, certain activities or positions to avoid, and at home exercises and/or stretches. If you desire, our wellness team will work with you also to
create healthy habits and routines for your lifestyle. Every person is unique, therefore everyone requires a customized wellness plan. The purpose of our wellness
program is for you to achieve good spinal alignment, have a healthy diet, exercise, and maintain a positive mental state.
