Herndon Chiropractic and Acupuncture Care : Your Follow Up Visits
Second Visit
Chiropractic Report Of Findings
On your second visit, a new patient can expect to be greeted warmly once again. You will then be taken back to a pleasant, quiet lobby area and given an educational video. That way, you can better understand the doctor's report of your findings. Your second visit will probably take about an hour. Once you have reviewed the video, which should take about ten minutes, you will be taken back to the doctor's office. The doctor will clearly explain his findings, go over any tests results or x-rays if performed, let you know if he can help you and then recommend a treatment plan.
Chiropractic Treatment Plan
Once you understand the doctor's findings and the treatment plan, the doctor will take you into a therapy room where your therapy will begin. Usually it will be intersegmental traction with moist heat. Our patients say therapy feels wonderful and wish they could take our equipment home with them! You will then go back into the doctor's office after the therapy where he will explain what he is going to do and you will receive your first chiropractic adjustment and/or acupuncture treatment. Usually acupuncture is done on the ear with painless, needless laser or micro-stim.
After your treatment is completed the doctor will explain what he has done and answer any questions you may have. Finally, you will go back up to the front desk where you will be greeted with a smile and your next visit will be scheduled.
Regular Visits
A typical office visit takes about ten to forty minutes depending on you therapy. You will come in, be greeted with a smile and taken back to therapy. You usually do not need to disrobe.
Relaxing Therapy Sessions
You will enjoy a very relaxing therapy session that includes treatments like intersegmental traction, moist heat, electric stimulation, ultrasound, therapeutic massage or myofascial release and sometimes you will be instructed and guided in the performance of specific exercises. You will then go back to the doctor's office for your chiropractic adjustment and auriculotherapy acupuncture. The doctor will answer any of your questions and then you will be released to the front desk where you can schedule your next appointment.
