Consultation
You will have a consultation with Dr. Orienda Piccinini to discuss your health related problems, concerns, and potential treatment options. This initial consultation is designed so that Dr. Orienda can learn more about you, your concerns, and your expectations to determine how chiropractic can meet your goals. At this time you are more than welcome to ask any questions you may have.
Examination
After your consultation, Dr. Orienda will perform a complete chiropractic examination consisting of posture analysis, range of motion, orthopedic and neurological tests, and palpation. Nothing in our office will be done without your consent and you are free to ask any questions you have throughout the exam.
X-Ray Studies
Depending on your specific concerns, we may send you for x-rays as well. X-rays help us develop the most effective treatment plan for you, and can alert us of any serious spinal conditions.
Report of Findings
Once all of your information is collected and the examination is complete, Dr. Orienda will give you a detailed report of the findings and answer any other questions you may have including: How can you help me?, How often do I need to come in?, and How much will treatment cost? During the report of findings Dr. Orienda will also discuss recommendations and notify you if your concerns require care with other providers.
Treatment
At the conclusion of your initial appointment, you can choose to experience your first treatment. Treatment may include adjustments, taping, flexion, or soft tissue work. Dr. Orienda likes molding her treatment to what the patient’s body needs so you can express concerns about the different techniques at any time.
Wellness Program
Before leaving the office Dr. Orienda will provide you a program that should be followed outside the office to insure you are able to reach your optimal health goals. This could include advice pertaining to your lifestyle, eating habits, daily water intake, ice or heat application, and even exercises. It is important to remember that chiropractic health care is not just for relieving pain but also to help you have an enriched and fulfilling life.
