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.
The average office visit is 15-20 minutes but obviously can be longer depending on which therpapy is needed and used.
The typical visit involves discussing your present status:
- How are you feeling?
- Are you experiencing any discomfort?
- Are there any questions?
Dr. Shaw always encourages questions; the more you know about your body, the better you will treat it.
The actual treatment includes the chiropractic adjustment and is usually preceeded by a therapy which will relax the muscles. The therapy options include electrical muscle stimulation, ultrasound, and massage therapy.
It is also important for people to strengthen the region, so exercises such for balance, stretching, and strengthening may be given.
