Once the paperwork has been completed, you will have a consultation with our doctors to discuss your health-related problems and concerns. A doctor will ask you some specific questions regarding your condition to determine if Chiropractic care will benefit you.  Nothing will be done in our office without your consent.

Examination

After a thorough consultation with a doctor, a number of specialized tests will be performed to determine which parts of your spine and nervous system are affected. This will include testing your reflexes, your ability to turn and bend as well as other standard orthopedic, neurologic, postural, and physical examinations. A doctor will gain valuable information regarding your condition so that a better understanding of how Chiropractic can help you.  If necessary, he may order X-rays or refer you for additional testing procedures.

Treatment

Once all the information and examinations have been performed, our doctors will give you a report of findings and tell you recommendations for treatment.  Most patients begin to see results from the very first adjustment. Our doctor’s gentle, yet effective, alignment of the body is interactive with the patient, gentle enough for kids, yet able to restore function and movement for the athlete and senior. SOS Chiropractic participates in many insurance programs as well as auto accident cases. To find out if your insurance covers Chiropractic care, you can call our office directly or schedule a free consultation at 239-677-3593 For patients who have little or no Chiropractic insurance coverage, we will create a flexible payment program.

Home Instructions

Prior to leaving, many patients will be given instructions on certain activities or procedures to be conducted at home. This may include ice or heat application instructions, avoidance of certain activities or positions, as well as home exercises and/or stretches.

Schedule Your Next Appointment

Prior to leaving you will be given a time for your follow-up visit. Typically, patients are seen within 1-2 days after their initial consultation and are provided with a complete review of findings. Future recommendations will also be discussed during this time.
