Your First Visit to Our Clinton Practice
Print off and fill out the initial health profiles before your first visit to save time at your appointment!
Our goal at Clinton Chiropractic & Wellness Centre is to eliminate every bit of apprehension you may have visiting a chiropractor for the first time.
Since chiropractic care involves a series of visits, each one building on the one before, it’s important that our relationship can go the distance. We’ve found that one of the best ways to have successful patient relationships is to explain everything in advance. The more you understand who we are, what we do and why we do it, the better results you’ll enjoy. It’s as simple as that.
Your First Chiropractic Visit
When you arrive at our office you will be greeted warmly by our staff, who are exceptionally well-trained and were hand-picked for their commitment to customer service. Their first priority is to help you have a comfortable experience. They will help you fill out the initial paperwork, answer your questions and explain our fee structure.
Next you will receive a thorough orthopedic, neurological, postural and spinal examination. This will determine any abnormal alignment and motion patterns that could be harming your central and peripheral nervous systems and subsequent organ function.
If you have x-rays or MRI/CT reports, please bring them along. Depending on the results of these preliminary tests our doctors may recommend x-rays be taken which can be performed at one of our local hospitals.
Adjustments are not always given on the first visit, this will be decided on a case by case basis. A review of your history and examination results are necessary to make the best recommendations and ensure you are given the best care.
Plan on approximately 1 hour for your first visit.

Your Second Visit to Our Office – Your Doctor’s Report
Your second visit is very important! We will give a detailed overview of how reconstructive or structural chiropractic works. This initial part will review your examination findings, giving you a description of what is going on and then through detailed recommendations for a plan of care suitable for your specific needs as well as the financial investment required. At that point you will decide how you would like to proceed and you’ll receive your first adjustment at the end of your report.
For many, the moments leading up to the first adjustment are scary but almost invariably everyone walks away with a feeling of relief…relieved that the adjustment was “no big deal” and relieved that their health is on the mend.
Regular Visits
After the investment of time needed on the first and second visits, many patients become concerned that every visit will be of equal length.
In a word: no. A typical visit may require just a few, highly-focused, minutes.
But don’t think the brevity of a regular visit lessens its value! With the groundwork laid, we can quickly size up what your spine and nervous system, adjust you and get you on your way. Our success as chiropractors is built on producing highly satisfied customers!
Like a regular workout at the gym, each visit builds on the ones before. Miss a visit and we can lose the momentum necessary to make the needed changes.
We recognize your time is valuable. We do everything possible to run on time and minimize the impact on your busy life.
