Consultation

Next, you will have a consultation with Dr.  Ruescher to discuss your health-related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options. This initial visit is designed for Dr.  Ruescher to learn more about you, your condition, and expectations to determine how chiropractic care can meet your goals.

Examination

After your consultation, Dr. Ruescher will perform a complete chiropractic examination including adrenal gland assessment for the adverse effects of stress and if necessary urine testing for heavy metal toxicity.  pH analysis of the saliva may also be performed for toxic chemicals.  Other standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical tests will be performed as well.  However, nothing will be done in our office without your consent.

Report of Findings

Once the information is collected and examinations are performed, Dr.  Ruescher will give you a detailed report of all findings and answer any questions including:

1. Can you help me?

2. How much treatment will it require?

3. How much will my treatment cost?

After reviewing your health history, goals, and examination findings, Dr.  Ruescher will discuss recommendations and notify you if your condition requires care with other providers.  Dr. Ruescher will provide the best treatment and wellness program for your needs.

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.
