Our Initial Chiropractic Assessment Explained
The first 45-minute visit helps us find out what’s causing the pain and get a clear picture of the contributing factors. We’ll run 10 different tests to check your muscles, bones and nerves using state-of-the art modern equipment. These tests show us if anything is out of balance in your body.
Once we understand the specifics, we’ll make personalised treatment plan just for you. We’ll explain everything in your second 45-minute visit, where we’ll show you your test results and scans. You’ll have plenty of time to ask questions, and we’ll look at the available treatment options.
DAY 1 – The 10-point Initial (45min) Assessment
1. Health and Spinal History
A detailed medical, and spinal history, noting aches, pains, mobility issues, and key health factors. We’ll also consider past and present accidents, injuries and traumas.
2. Initial Postural Analysis
An Initial spine palpation and posture analysis helps our chiropractors understand the key issues affecting the alignment of the joints and spine structure.
3. Weight Distribution
To see what the pressure is on each side, as imbalances of the posture system, can lead to an uneven weight distribution, which puts extra pressure on the joints, affects tracking, and may lead to accelerated wear and tear and other issues.
4. Postural Measurements
Capture high-resolution images for detailed posture analysis using specialized software. Using a special posture app, we measure and map out your posture for a clear objective assessment. It’s also a great way for comparing the before and after images, when you do a progress report in the future.
5. X-rays (if clinically required)
By looking on the inside we gain insight into vertebrae condition, health of the discs, and spinal shape to tailor your personalised care plan.
6. Heart Rate Variability
By measuring the stress levels of the central nervous system using a dedicated scanner we can see where your nervous system is at. Too much stress can cause fatigue.
7. Nerve Function Scan
This scan measures the output of the spinal nerves on both sides to see what nerves are operating in-range, below range and above the healthy range. Meaning they are either under-performing, on-point, or over-exerting.
8. EMG Spinal Muscle Scan
Assess the activity of the skeletal muscle to detect overexertion or underperformance. Whilst the nerves power the muscles, it’s important to see if these two are in agreement or not. Lack of muscle activation can cause weakness and even injuries, constant muscle tension can lead to high blood pressure and calcification.
9. Blood Pressure and Oxygen Levels
Check for low blood pressure, hypertension, and O2 levels, to ensure optimal oxygen levels reaching your brain, and also for overall health.
10. Detailed Muscle and Joint Palpation
Our experienced Chiropractors will carefully examine things like muscle tone, joint mobility, inflammation, and nerve impingement to highlight areas of weakness, tension, and dysfunction.
