First visit
Your first visit
About 45 minutes: a talk, an exam and, if your doctor recommends it, a first adjustment.
You tell your doctor about your health in person. This website never asks for health details, and the contact form says so.
What to bring
Nothing to fill out ahead of time. Bring what you have.
Your card
An HSA or FSA card if you use one, or any card, cash or a check.
A list of what you take
Medicines and supplements, so your doctor knows them.
Notes or imaging reports
Anything from another provider that you already have.
Questions
Write them down. Your doctor will go through each one.
In the room, in order

Step 1: Welcome and the estimate

- 02
Step 2: A talk
Your doctor listens first and asks about your goals.
- 03
Step 3: An exam
A hands-on exam of how you move. X-rays only when medically necessary.
- 04
Step 4: The plan and the risks
Your doctor explains what they found, what they suggest, what it costs and what its risks are. Rare serious problems have been reported after neck adjustments, so your doctor explains the risks before any neck adjustment, and you can say no to any part of a visit.

Step 5: An adjustment, if you agree
Only if your doctor recommends it and you say yes. You can stop at any point.

Step 6: Checkout and receipt
You pay for the visit and leave with an itemized receipt.
First visit questions
What happens at my first visit?
You talk with your doctor, then have an exam. If your doctor recommends it, you may have a first adjustment the same day. A first visit takes about 45 minutes. You leave with an itemized receipt and a plan for what comes next.
Do I need x-rays?
Not always. X-rays are taken only when medically necessary, and your doctor explains why before one is taken. They are quoted separately from the visit.
What if I have already seen another provider?
Bring any notes or imaging reports you have and tell your doctor who else is caring for you. Your doctor works alongside them and refers you to a physician when that is the right next step.
