What To Expect
Step 1: Complimentary Consultation
Your first visit begins with a complimentary consultation. This gives us time to understand what has brought you in and whether our approach may be appropriate for you.
We’ll discuss:
• What you’re currently experiencing
• Your health history and any previous injuries
• Your concerns, preferences and goals
• Any questions you have about chiropractic care or our approach
Our aim at this stage is to listen, understand your situation and explain the options available to you.
If chiropractic care appears appropriate and you would like to continue, you can proceed with a paid examination, which may be completed on the same day.
Step 2: Holistic Body and Neurostructural Examination
If clinically appropriate, we can then continue with a thorough holistic body and neurostructural examination.
Your examination may include:
✓ Postural assessment
✓ Neurological examination
✓ Orthopaedic testing
✓ Chiropractic evaluation
✓ Nervous system assessment
✓ Functional movement observations.
If clinically indicated, you may be referred for spinal X-rays, which are fully covered by Medicare.
Step 3: Health Report
During this appointment, we'll discuss the findings from your examination and explain what they mean for you.
We'll also discuss our recommendations and, where appropriate, an individualised schedule of care based on your findings, goals and preferences.
You'll have the opportunity to ask questions and decide how you'd like to proceed.
If you choose to begin care, your first chiropractic adjustment may be provided at this visit.
Step 4: Adjustment Visits
Adjustment visits are generally shorter than your initial appointments and focus on the care recommended for you.
Depending on your individual needs and preferences, we may use gentle, low-force Network Spinal Care alongside traditional chiropractic techniques where appropriate.
Your care is tailored to you and may be adjusted over time based on your progress and clinical findings.
Step 5: Review Visits
Review visits are scheduled at appropriate intervals during your care to assess your progress and revisit your goals.
Where appropriate, we may repeat elements of your examination and discuss any changes you've noticed.
Your care recommendations can then be adjusted based on your progress, clinical findings and individual needs.
