Your Second Visit to Our Herndon Practice

On your report visit we explain what we found and how we may be able to help you.

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.

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.

 Dr. K Asks some important questions of interest to Herndon residents - Chiropractor Herndon Dr. K Asks...

What causes subluxations?
Chiropractors acknowledge three types of stress: physical, chemical and emotional. When the adaptive capacity of your body is compromised, weakened areas along the spine can become involved. Muscles tighten, spinal joints lock up and nearby nerves are affected. The purpose of chiropractic care is to find these areas and restore balance, alignment and motion.
What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Herndon parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.
