Expectations & Paperwork FAQs

What to Expect During Your First Appointment

Before your first visit, you can conveniently complete the new patient paperwork online. If you prefer to fill it out in person, our receptionist will assist you upon arrival. This paperwork provides us with important health history and information about your condition. Once the paperwork is complete, you’ll have a thorough, one-on-one consultation with Dr. Karen Krieg. During this time, you’ll discuss your health concerns, goals, and expectations, allowing Dr. Krieg to understand how chiropractic care can best meet your needs and help guide your healing journey.

Dr. Krieg will then perform a physical examination and may recommend state-of-the-art X-rays. These advanced X-rays provide a detailed, clear view of your spine and allow Dr. Krieg to identify any misalignments or issues that could be affecting your health. The results will help Dr. Krieg create an effective, customized treatment plan. After reviewing the findings, she will take the time to answer any questions you have and discuss your care plan, including treatment frequency and associated costs.

After your first adjustment, it’s normal to experience some soreness or, in some cases, immediate relief. Your body is adjusting to the changes, and both responses are typical as your spine begins to align. With each visit, you’ll experience progress and the benefits of continued care.
