What to Expect from Your First Chiropractic Care Appointment

When you're exploring the world of holistic healthcare, you may be excited to try chiropractic care for the first time. As with any new treatment, it's normal to wonder what to expect the first time you meet with your chiropractor. At Houston County Chiropractic in Dothan, we're here to meet all of your holistic health care needs. Let's take a look at what you can expect when you come in for your first appointment. 

What to Expect from Your First Appointment with Our Chiropractor

When you come in for your first chiropractic care appointment, you'll talk with your chiropractor about why you're seeking chiropractic care. Your chiropractor will talk with you about the treatments that make the most sense for your goals. Together, you'll decide whether or not chiropractic care is a good fit for your needs. 

If you decide to move forward with treatment, your chiropractor may offer to start your treatment immediately. While you may feel better after your first chiropractic care treatment, it's important that you continue to attend your regular appointments as determined by your treatment plan. For most people, it takes anywhere from a few weeks to a few months to feel the full effects of regular chiropractic care. 

Chiropractic Care Services

Many patients find that they have the most success using several modalities of treatment, including: 

• Chiropractic care - From spinal adjustments to spinal decompression, chiropractic care techniques can align the spine and other areas of the body, allowing your body's systems to work in harmony. 
• Corrective exercises - If you have an injury, are working on flexibility, or need injury prevention, corrective exercises can help. 
• Lifestyle advice - Some lifestyle choices can have a negative impact on health. We'll work with you to help you make the necessary changes to improve your body and mind. 
• Nutritional counseling - In today's fast paced world, it can be easy to rely on convenience foods rather than eating nutrient dense foods that give your body what it needs to thrive. Nutritional counseling can give you the advice you need to become healthier and increase your energy.
