What to Expect

What to Expect

We want your experience in our office to feel welcoming, efficient, and stress-free—from your first visit through ongoing care.

Before Your First Visit

To help you be seen in a timely manner, new patient forms are sent to you ahead of your appointment. Completing these forms in advance allows us to focus more time on your care when you arrive. If preferred, forms may also be completed in the office.

Your Initial Visit (Approximately 30 Minutes)

When you arrive, Dr. Nel will personally welcome you and your family and bring you to our treatment room. Your first visit typically takes about 30 minutes and includes:

• A thorough review of your health history and current concerns
  
  

• A focused examination to ensure detailed, accurate care
  
  

• In-house X-rays, taken the same day if clinically necessary, for your convenience
  
  

• A gentle initial adjustment designed to help facilitate relief and improve comfort
  
  

Our goal during your first visit is to understand your needs and begin care safely and effectively.

Your Follow-Up Visit

At your next appointment, we will:

• Review your exam findings
  
  

• Go over your X-ray report, if taken
  
  

• Discuss recommendations and create a customized care plan
  
  

• Continue with full chiropractic adjustments and additional therapies as appropriate
  
  

This visit ensures you understand your care and feel confident moving forward.

Ongoing & Wellness Visits (Apporximately 10 minutes)

Once you transition into wellness care, visits are efficient and focused. These appointments are designed to maintain progress and fit easily into your routine.

Supportive therapies may also be included when appropriate, such as:

• Intersegmental (roller table) therapy
  
  

• Electrical stimulation (ESTIM)

• Rehabilitative/Corrective Exercises
