Chiropractors in North Kansas City : Expectations
Our office is very comfortable and welcoming, not a single person enters our doors without being acknowledged and cared for.
We begin the visit with some basic paperwork so we can get to know the patient. We offer complimentary hydro massage and other supportive therapies. We complete a thorough exam which includes: a state-of-the-art nerve scan, range of motion tests, and hands on palpation completed by the Doctor.
At Fountain Of Life Family Chiropractic our examinations procedures are geared toward detection and correction of the "Vertebral Subluxation". The procedures we use are therefore specifically selected for your spine and nervous system health. There are a couple of things that you should expect when you have a first visit at our North Kansas City chiropractic clinic.
Your First Visit - Examination
Our examination consists of a thorough spinal and nervous system exam which includes "Palpation." Palpation essentially is checking your spine by hand. With this exam the doctor can feel areas of your spine that may be involved with subluxations problems. Spinal position, curvatures and muscle tone can also be examined as it relates to possible spinal subluxations. Chiropractors in North Kansas City and chiropractors around the world, acknowledge that palpation is one of the best ways to detect possible spinal subluxations.
Your examination will also include a computerized examination called the "Insight Millennium Subluxation Examination." This examination involves several important components.
Insight Millennium Subluxation Examination
The first part of this examination process involves reading spinal heat differences from one level of the spine to another, as well as from one side of the spine to the other. Heat is a byproduct of circulation, which is controlled by the autonomic nervous system. From this we can see how subluxation may be affecting these functions of your nervous system.
In the second part of this examination the Insight Millennium Subluxation Examination scans the surface of your spinal area for surface electrical impulses, and measures them along your spine. This helps measure the effect of subluxation on the motor nerve system and the effect subluxations may be having on your muscles.
Your Second Visit - Report of Findings
During the second visit the doctor will present the patient with their custom tailored plan for treatment that may include complimentary therapies such as hydromassage, e-stim and/or traction. Then the patient is given the option to start care.
Report of Findings
You will be scheduled for your Report of Findings within a few days of your initial visit. This visit is your most important visit and may take up to one hour. It is at your Report of Findings that we will give you a care plan and go over any special instructions you will need to obtain the best and fastest possible results. We have set aside specific times for these visits so as not to interfere with regular patient care hours. Our staff will schedule your Report of Findings with you after your first visit.
The importance of each of the tests conducted on your first visit will be explained to you at your Report of Findings. The examination and spinal scan helps us scientifically understand the subluxation processes going on in your spine. It also gives us a baseline for future tests so we can accurately measure your progress to see how your spine is correcting and your nervous system is functioning. Using the Insight Millennium Subluxation Examination is much more accurate than just depending on "how you feel" on any given day.
