Answer

The goal of your first appointment is to gather as much data as possible about your past and current health status as well as your health goals for the future. This appointment can take upwards of one hour. Dr. Jenna starts with a Comprehensive Consultation which aims to identify the impact physical, chemical and emotional stressors have made on your health. And although our Neuro-structural Examinations are individualized to your specific problem, there are some basic tests that give her a high level overview of your health status. These may include:

Chiropractic is not a cure, treatment or quick fix for any symptom or condition, and patients often report other improvements in their health after being under chiropractic care. Although the goal of chiropractic isn’t to treat these conditions, and the results may be due to other factors, this has been the anecdotal evidence from patients. To see if Dr. Jenna can help with your specific health problem, schedule a Complimentary Consultation with her.

Answer

These are just some of the chronic health issues that we’ve seen improve after restoring structural function to the spine:

Question 4

Does an adjustment hurt?

Answer

Your comfort is a vital part of the healing process. Dr. Jenna’s approach leverages gentle corrections, drop piece tables and hand held adjusting tools. Many patients report immediate relief after a correction, especially if there has been long-standing restrictions in your spine and an accumulation of stress.

Question 5

Is it safe for my kids to see a chiropractor?

Answer

Yes. In fact, many neuromusculoskeletal problems begin in the early stages of life as children are rapidly developing their neurological and motor programming. Dr. Jenna is trained to perform a Comprehensive Consultation and Neuro-structural Examination at any age, which obviously includes tests, techniques and approaches specific and age-appropriate to your child.

Question 6

Is it safe for me to see a chiropractor during pregnancy?

Answer

Yes. Dr. Jenna is trained to assess pregnancy related problems and utilize prenatal specific techniques to ensure her approach is comfortable, safe and effective. She utilizes an adjustable table and pregnancy pillows that allow you to lay on your growing belly comfortably through all stages of pregnancy. The most common feedback we hear from pregnant mothers is that chiropractic care minimizes discomfort, improves their mobility and optimizes their body for the birthing process and postpartum recovery.

Question 7

How much will my care cost?

Answer

Your Consultation, Neuro-structural Examination and Review of Results is $110. Subsequent checkup and adjustments are $45 for adults and $30 for children. However, until your Neuro-structural Examination has been completed we aren’t able to estimate what your total investment will be since frequency and schedule recommendations will vary.

Question 8

How do I know if I need a chiropractor instead of a physiotherapist or massage therapist?

Answer

The short answer is, you don’t. Pain and symptoms are certainly a signal that your body needs help, but they don’t tell the entire story. This is exactly why we use advanced technology and a Comprehensive Consultation and Neuro-structural Examination to determine whether your problem is originating from an isolated soft tissue problem or dysfunction in your neuromusculoskeletal system. From here, Dr. Jenna can determine if she’s the most suitable solution or whether you require a referral to another health practitioner that will be more equipped to help with a problem outside her scope.

Question 9

Once I start seeing a Chiropractor do I need to go forever?

Answer

Not at all! We do not lock you into a contract which means that you decide when your care begins and ends. Once you complete your Comprehensive Consultation and Neuro-structural Examination Dr. Jenna will explain your test results and review your detailed and individualized plan to start the correction process. As you progress through your care schedule Dr. Jenna monitors your progress at regular intervals, allowing you to make choices about your care going forward which are based on your health goals and expectations at that time. Most patients choose to protect the investment they’ve made in their health and do continue with ongoing chiropractic care, but ultimately that choice is always yours.
