Upon entering our office, our receptionist will welcome you as a member of our family. We will request that you complete our patient forms located in the New Patient
Center. This paperwork provides us with your health history and information on your condition.
Consultation
Next, you will have a consultation with Dr. Hodge to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options. This initial visit is designed for Dr.
Hodge to learn more about you, your condition, and expectations to determine how chiropractic care can meet your goals.
Examination
After your consultation, Dr. Hodge will perform a complete chiropractic examination testing your reflexes and flexibility. Other standard neurological, orthopedic,
postural, and physical tests will be performed as well. However, nothing will be done in our office without your consent.
X-Ray Studies
Depending on your specific condition, we may take X-rays as well. X-rays help us develop the most effective treatment plan for you, and alert us of any serious spinal
conditions. Most people are amazed once they see their X-rays up close. In some cases, they can even identify their misalignments and degeneration themselves.
Report of Findings
After reviewing your health history, goals, and examining your spine and X-rays, Dr. Hodge will discuss recommendations and notify you if your condition
requires care with other providers. Our office will provide the best treatment and wellness program for your needs.
Treatment
At the conclusion of this initial appointment, you can choose to experience your first treatment. This may include spinal adjustments, physical therapy, and/or soft
tissue massage. Treatment is interactive, so you can express concerns about the different styles of treatment anytime.
