During a chiropractic assessment, the therapist reviews the intake form, inquires about the injury, and evaluate the affected area covering mobility, strength, balance and flexibility. Post-examination, they discuss their findings and propose a treatment plan, ensuring there's still ample time for the initial treatment.
