The Clovelly Chiropractor to see - Chiropractor Clovelly

Your Second Visit

After we study your health history and correlate our examination findings, we’ll make recommendations designed to help you get and keep your health. We call this the Report of Findings.

This is usually attended to on your second visit, which may be later the same day or the following day. This two-visit approach accomplishes several things:

  • Reduces the length of your first visit
  • Gives us time to correlate our findings
  • Avoids overloading you with too much information 

In certain situations, and in the professional judgment of Chiropractor Mike Black, we sometimes make exceptions. It just depends on your unique situation.

Report of Findings

We’ll spend about 15 minutes reviewing our findings with you and offering answers to the four questions most patients have when they consult our office:

Our job is offer you the very best chiropractic care possible. It’s your job to decide how much of it you want.

  • What’s wrong?
  • Can chiropractic help?
  • How long will it take?
  • How much will it cost?

If you have any other questions, be sure to ask!

You’ll Have Choices

Based on our findings, we’ll make recommendations and you’ll be presented with some choices:

  • Proceed with chiropractic care
  • Seek the opinion of another practitioner
  • Ignore the problem hoping it will resolve
  • Medication to reduce symptoms (referral required)
  • Physical therapy (referral required)
  • Surgical intervention (referral required)

Mike Black Asks some important questions of interest to Clovelly residents - Chiropractor Clovelly Mike Black Asks...

Do nerves actually get pinched?
Chiropractors recognise two types of nerve disorders involved in subluxation. The least common is a pinched nerve that diminishes nerve supply to an affected organ or tissue. More common is the irritated nerve (facilitative lesion) which overexcites nerve communications to an affected organ or tissue. Chiropractic care has been shown to help with both types.
If you have a fever, are you sick or healthy?
Chiropractors love asking this question because it gets to the root of the chiropractic difference. Turns out fevers, vomiting, coughing and even sneezing are all healthy responses. It means your body is working correctly. Taking medications to suppress these natural processes can actually prolong your recovery.
