Your Chiropractic Examination
During your examination, we will attempt to find out exactly what is happening with your body. We may perform the following:
- a spinal and postural examination;
- static palpation tests - feel and assess the bones, joints and surrounding muscles and structures;
- assessment of your joint function and movement - Neck, Back, Knee, Ankle, Shoulder etc.;
- weight balance test;
- a balance assessment;
- manual muscle testing;
- neurological examination;
- orthopedic tests;
- other health tests; and/or
- X-rays (If necessary. Facilities are available on premises.)
Once we have reviewed your tests, we will explain our findings and recommend what needs to be done to attain and maintain your health goals. If at this stage, we find anything outside of our expertise, we will refer you to the appropriate professional. Feel free to ask any questions and we will try to provide you with the appropriate answers.
