The S. Ozone Park Chiropractor to see - Chiropractor S. Ozone Park

Your First Visit

Consultation

The purpose of our initial consultation is to get to know each other, discuss your health concerns and see if you’re a good candidate for chiropractic care. We’ll ask a few questions and do a lot of listening. There is never a charge for the initial consultation in our office.

If we don’t think we can help, we’ll tell you. If we think we can help, and you agree, we can usually proceed to the next step, which is a thorough examination. Our patients appreciate the fact that we explain everything in advance.

Examination

If our consultation suggests that you’d likely be helped with chiropractic care, we’ll need to perform a complete examination. Our examination varies based upon what we discover during the evaluation of your health history. What we find will tell us which examinations we need to conduct.

• Orthopedic - These examinations test your ability to turn, bend and move key joints of your skeletal system through their expected range of motion.
  
  
• Neurological – We’ll test your nerve pathways, deep tendon reflexes, muscle strength and other aspects pointing to the health of your  nervous system.
  
  
• Chiropractic – These tests can include postural evaluations, static and dynamic palpation and other procedures to reveal neurological problems.
  
  
• X-ray – Diagnostic imaging can help locate any bone abnormalities, allow analysis and measurement of spinal joint positioning, rule out the presence of fractures and reveal your spines phase of spinal decay.
