What Should You Expect on Your First Visit With Us?

At De Saro Chiropractic Center, our examination procedures are geared toward detection and correction of the "Vertebral Subluxation".  The procedures we use are therefore specifically and personally selected for the health of your spine and nervous system.  There are a couple of things that you should expect when you have a first visit at our office.

The Doctor's Examination consists of a thorough spinal and nervous system exam which includes "Palpation".  Palpation essentially is checking your spine by hand.  With this exam the doctor can feel areas of your spine that may be involved with subluxation problems.  Spinal position, curvatures and muscle tone can also be examined as it relates to possible spinal subluxations.

Spinal X-rays may be taken depending on your situation.  There are many reasons why we would not take x-rays on certain patients including pregnancy, age, accesibility to recent usable spinal x-rays or MRIs, etc.  Aside from these situations, x-rays are a common part of the examination process when looking for vertebral subluxations.  X-rays give us important information including the position of the spinal bones, and the quality of the spine and safety of adjusting it.  X-rays also tell us the relative length of time subluxations may have been involved in your spine.  Commonly, most patients receive spinal x-rays at the beginning of care. 

The importance of each of these procedures will be explained to you at your Report of Findings (second visit).  However, it is important to note that this examination helps scientifically understand the subluxation processes going on in your spine.  It also gives us a baseline for future tests so we can accurately measure your progress to see how your spine is correcting and your nervous system is functioning. 

With this important information we can make a more accurate determination of the type of adjustments your spine needs as well as the frequency of your care. Your x-rays will also be explained to you and covered in detail at your Report of Findings Visit.

Chiropractic Care at De Saro Chiropractic Center, utilizes the most modern chiropractic, analytical, and adjusting procedures and equipment available.  We consider subluxations to be a serious threat to you and your family's the quality and quantity of health.  It is therefore imperative that we utilize the most modern and the well established time-proven procedures to help you. 

We feel you're worth it!
