What can you expect at your first Chiropractic visit in Porirua NZ?

At your initial visit, your chiropractor will go through your major concerns as to why you are seeking out care, alongside this they will dive into your health history. This is important because your body is a reflection as to every experience it has been through. We as humans, live in a world where there are many stressors on the body - this can be anything from your postural habits, to previous injuries, to chemical imbalances due to food, long term meds and even emotional stress. Over the course of our lives these stresses act upon our bodies and can snowball which leads to improper functioning of the brain and the rest of the body.

Chiropractors understand the interconnectedness of the body and how things may compensate over time and cause your body to function at a less than optimal level.

Going on from the history component, your chiropractor will physically assess your body and look at many things from your posture, your range of motion, muscle activation and areas that are tender and inappropriately moving segmentally.

After going through a thorough physical assessment, this provides a good amount of information to get started with your treatment plan. Your chiropractor will put together a comprehensive plan which involves lifestyle advice, stretches and specific exercises to help support your goals. This will all be covered at your ‘Report of Findings’ visit.

After the initial assessment, you are now ready for your very first adjustment!
