Patient Forms
Upon entering our office for your first visit, our receptionist will welcome you as a member of our family. We will request that you complete our patient forms in advance. They are located under the New Patient Center. This paperwork provides us with your health history and information on your condition. We will also show you a short video with more information about chiropractic and the B.E.S.T. technique.
Consultation
Next, you will have a consultation with Dr. Don Williams DC to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options. This initial visit is designed for the doctor to learn more about you, your condition, and expectations to determine how chiropractic care can meet your goals.
Examination
After your consultation, Dr. Don 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 request X-rays as well. X-rays alert us of any underlying diseases and serious spinal conditions such as fractures or degeneration.
Report of Findings
Once the information is collected and examinations are performed, you will be schedule for your second appointment. Dr. Don 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 spine, scans or X-rays, and other tests, he will discuss recommendations and notify you if your condition requires care with other providers. Dr. Don will provide the best treatment and wellness program for your needs.
Treatment
At the conclusion of both appointments, Dr. Don will give you treatment utilizing the B.E.S.T. technique. This technique is a gentle, non-forceful, physical procedure designed to correct the deeper cause of your condition by re-balancing your nervous system. Treatment is interactive, so you can express concerns about the different styles of treatment anytime.
Wellness Program
Prior to leaving your second appointment, 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 to help create a lifestyle that will re-establish a body and mind that is resilient and allows you to adapt optimally to the stresses of life.
