What to Expect
Your first visit to Gentle Care Chiropractic is the beginning of a journey toward better health. Here's what the process looks like from start to finish.
Your Path to Relief
We've designed our process to be straightforward and comfortable so you can focus on what matters most — getting better.
Initial Visit & Intake Form
Your journey begins before you even walk through our doors. Complete your new patient intake form online to save time, or fill it out when you arrive. The form covers your health history, current symptoms, medications, and wellness goals — giving our doctors the information they need to provide the best care from day one.
Consultation
You'll sit down one-on-one with one of our doctors to discuss your health history, current symptoms, lifestyle, and wellness goals. We'll ask about your work habits, past injuries, and any concerns you may have. This conversation helps us understand the full picture of your health so we can build the most effective care plan for you.
Digital X-Ray
If clinically indicated, we'll take digital X-rays right here in our office — no need for a separate trip to an imaging center. Digital X-rays give us a detailed look at your spinal alignment, joint health, and any underlying structural issues. This helps us pinpoint the exact source of your pain and design a targeted treatment approach.
Report of Findings
Your doctor will walk you through the results of your consultation and examination in clear, easy-to-understand language. We'll explain exactly what we found, what's causing your symptoms, and how we plan to address it. We believe in informed patients, so we encourage questions and make sure you understand every aspect of your diagnosis before moving forward.
Adjustments & Therapy
In many cases, we begin treatment on your very first visit. Our gentle chiropractic adjustments are designed to relieve pain, restore mobility, and support your body's natural healing process. Depending on your needs, treatment may also include massage therapy, electrical stimulation, laser therapy, or physical rehabilitation exercises.
Wellness & Rehab Plan
Based on your diagnosis and treatment response, your doctor will create a personalized wellness and rehabilitation plan. This includes a recommended visit schedule, at-home exercises, ergonomic guidance, and lifestyle recommendations to support long-term recovery and prevent future issues. We'll monitor your progress and adjust your plan as needed.
Insurance & Payment
We accept most major insurance plans, auto accident insurance (PIP), workers' compensation, and Medicare. Our billing team will verify your coverage and explain your benefits before treatment begins so there are no surprises. We also offer flexible payment options for patients without insurance.
