In our clinic, chiropractic care involves a three-step approach including history, tissue and functional diagnosis exam and a personalized treatment program to help with pain reduction, restoration of movement and health enhancement. 

​

During the history, time will be taken to understand your pain and injury story and how it affects your everyday life including your feelings, work and social relationships. We will also want to find out if you are in the right office by identifying risk factors and other conditions that may require a referral.

​

During the tissue and functional diagnosis exam, the focus is on identifying which tissues may be generating the pain and how overall movement patterns are involved. Identification of tissue sensitivities and strengths and weakness of these patterns will be the foundation of your tissue and functional diagnosis. We will also rule out any signs of a serious condition such as a fracture for example.

​

Your personalized treatment program will be determined by the working diagnosis, your overall health, specific goals and preferences. Generally, the approach will be to calm the sensitive tissues down (pain reduction) then build function (mobility, motor control, strength and endurance) for overall health improvement.
