What to Expect

What to expect at your consultation

At Wholesome Health, we believe in taking a thorough and holistic approach to healthcare. Before you come in for a Chiropractic consultation, we’ll first send you online paperwork to fill out so we have a better understanding of your current health.

During the consultation, we’ll fully examine you, which includes a complete spinal check, orthopaedic and neurological testing. This is because we understand that the nervous system runs through the spine and controls all functions of the body, and we want to ensure that everything is functioning properly. We won’t just focus on the problem area, but will also look for other underlying issues that may be contributing to your pain or discomfort.

Once we’ve completed the examination, we’ll sit down with you to discuss your goals and what you hope to achieve through Chiropractic care. We believe it’s important to understand what’s meaningful to you and what you want to get back to doing, if pain has been stopping you.

From there, we’ll create a personalised treatment plan that may include adjustments, massage, lifestyle advice, and other techniques to help get you back to optimal health. We’ll take the time to explain each step of the process, so you feel comfortable and informed about your care.

At Wholesome Health, we’re committed to helping you achieve your health goals and get back to living your life to the fullest. By combining a wealth of experience, knowledge and techniques, we offer you quality, bespoke and ultimately preventative healthcare.

Your First
Adjustment

We know that your first chiropractic adjustment may seem intimidating, but we promise it’s a safe and painless process (well, there may be a little discomfort from sore muscles – but not much)!

After a thorough examination and discussion of your medical history and goals, the chiropractor will use their hands, activator or other techniques to make gentle and precise adjustments to your spine. You may hear a popping sound, which is just gas being released from the joints, and often people report immediate pain relief.

It’s important to note that chiropractic adjustments are tailored to each individual’s unique needs and may require multiple sessions for maximum benefits. During your first adjustment, the chiropractor will also provide lifestyle advice, such as exercises or stretches to aid in your recovery and promote overall wellness.

At Wholesome Health, we prioritize our patients’ comfort and safety throughout the entire chiropractic experience. Our goal is to empower you to take control of your health and wellbeing through natural, holistic methods.
