Your First Visit

Patient Forms

Upon entering our office, Bruna, our office manager, will  welcome you as a member of our family.  We will request that you complete our  patient forms located in the New Patient Center. This paperwork provides us with your health history and information on your condition.

Consultation

Next, you will have a consultation with Dr. Deborah Pearson to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options. This initial visit is designed for Dr. Deborah Pearson to learn more about you, your condition, and  expectations to determine how chiropractic care can meet your goals.

Examination

After your consultation, Dr. Deborah Pearson will perform a complete chiropractic examination testing your reflexes and flexibility. Other standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical tests will be performed as well. However, nothing will be done in our office without your consent.

X-Ray Studies

Depending on your specific condition, we may take X-rays as well. X-rays help us develop  the most effective treatment plan for you, and alert us of  any serious spinal conditions.

Report of Findings

Once the information is collected  and examinations are performed, Dr. Deborah Pearson will thoroughly review your findings.  When you return on your next visit Dr. Pearson will give you a detailed report of 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 and X-rays, Dr. Deborah Pearson will discuss recommendations and notify you if  your condition  requires care with other providers.   Dr. Deborah Pearson  will  provide the best  treatment and  wellness program for your needs.

Treatment

At the conclusion of your report of findings, you can choose to  experience your first treatment. This will include a gentle adjustment to the areas that are causing your symptoms, a relaxing treatment on the spinulator, and acupuncture performed with a small electrical stimulation.  Treatment is interactive, so  you can express concerns about the different styles of treatment  anytime.

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 application instructions, certain activities or positions to avoid, and at home exercises and/or stretches.
