Patient Forms
Upon entering our office, one of our team members will welcome you. We have very different paper work to fill out. This paperwork provides us with your health history and information on you. You may find the case history available to down load under the forms tab.
Consultation
Next, you will have a consultation with Dr. Tina Maruszewski to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options. This initial visit is designed for Dr. Tina Maruszewski to learn more about you, your condition, and expectations to determine how chiropractic care can meet your goals.
Examination
After your consultation, Dr. Tina Maruszewski will perform a complete health examination testing your reflexes and flexibility. Other standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical tests will be performed as well. However, nothing will be done in our office without your consent.
X-Ray Studies
Depending on your specific condition, we may take X-rays as well. X-rays help us develop the most effective treatment plan for you, and alert us of any serious spinal conditions. Most people are amazed once they see their X-rays up close. In some cases, they can even identify their misalignments and degeneration themselves.
Report of Findings
Once the information is collected and examinations are performed, Dr. Tina Maruszewski will give you a detailed report of all findings and answer any questions including:
- How can you help me?
- How often do I need to come in?
- What will my treatment cost?
After reviewing your health history, goals, and doing a full examination, Dr. Tina Maruszewski will discuss recommendations and notify you if your condition requires care with other providers. Dr. Tina Maruszewski will provide the best treatment and wellness program for your needs.
Treatment
At the conclusion of this initial appointment, you can choose to experience your first therapeutic treatment. One visit is just that, one visit. It is not magic, but this is a starting point for us to get you back to your HEALTHY self!
Wellness Program
Prior to leaving, the doctor will suggest a wellness program to incorporate outside of treatment. If you are in pain when you first come into our office this may include: ice or heat application instructions, certain activities or positions to avoid, and at home exercises and/or stretches. If you desire, our wellness team will work with you also to create healthy habits and routines for your lifestyle. Every person is unique, therefore everyone requires a customized wellness plan. The purpose of our wellness program is for you to achieve good spinal alignment, have a healthy diet, exercise, and maintain a positive mental state.
