The initial evaluation includes a detailed assessment performed by a licensed chiropractic physician. This visit includes acquiring a thorough medical history, joint and muscle palpation, orthopedic, and neurological testing, and a functional movement assessment. Each patient receives an individualized treatment plan focused on their specific goals and objectives and can expect re-assessment checkpoints to measure progress. Treatment services are performed on the initial visit and may include spinal manipulative therapy (SMT), myofascial trigger point release (mTrP), instrument-assisted soft-tissue mobilization (IASTM), myofascial cupping, and/or rehabilitative exercise as deemed appropriate by the clinician.
