Patient Forms

Upon entering our office, our receptionist will  welcome you as a member of our family.  We will request that you complete our  patient forms located in the New Patient Center. This paperwork provides us with your health history, information on your condition and gives us some insight into your specific health goals.   

Consultation

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

Examination, with Thermography and sEMG studies

After your consultation, our Doctors will perform a thorough chiropractic examination testing your spinal motion capabilities as well as determining your neutral and functional postures.  In addition we begin the process of identifying the location and nature of our patient's subluxations.  Other  neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical tests will be performed as needed. However, nothing  will be done in our office  without your consent.

After this you undergo specific neurological testing with our Insight Subluxation Station.  This cutting edge technology involves Thermography and sEMG testing, which allows us to accurately measure the health of your spinal nerves.  This test helps us specifically identify the areas of subluxation.

Digital X-Ray Studies

Depending on your specific condition, we may take X-rays as well. X-rays help us develop  the most effective treatment plan for you, and alert us of  any serious spinal conditions. Most people are amazed once they see their X-rays up close. In some cases, they can even identify their misalignments and degeneration themselves.

Report of Findings

Once the information is collected  and examinations are performed, Dr. Simms and Dr. Reinarts will decide if you are a candidate for care, and if so you will be given a detailed report of  findings which includes the following:

1. Review of case history and health goals
2. Review of all examination findings, including detailed explanation of Thermography, EMG and X-ray testing
3. Detailed instruction as to the effects of subluxations on your health and wellness 
4. Explanation of adjustment needs, including care options
5. Cost of care outlined, including information of expected insurance contribution

At this time the adjustment plan will begin, wellness goals will be established and you will be invited to attend our new patient class, "Seven Secrets to Better Health and Healing".

Treatment

Once you have been accepted as a new patient in our office, we teach you how to prepare for your adjustments so you can get the most of out your care.   When assigned to a treatment room we ask that you lie down, readying your spine for your adjustment.   While laying in wait we ask that you calm your mind so you can be in the most peaceful state as possible.  Please silence your cell phone for this process.  

Many times, as we begin the process of unraveling aberrant nervous system patterns, we find that patients may experienced increased soreness that day.  Because of this we may ask you to ice the areas of discomfort.  

We perform very specific adjustments, employing a variety of Chiropractic adjustive techniques, including: Diversified, Toggle-recoil, flexion-distraction, activator, and drop techniques.   Each patient receives adjustment specific to their needs.

Wellness Program

As Wellness Chiropractors we believe that our approach should be holistic as we treat the whole person.   This is why we spend a great deal of time coaching our patients on the finer points of exercise, rehabilitation, nutrition, supplementation, ergonomics, sleep posture, and stress reduction.   Every patient is uniquely different, and our wellness recommendations vary accordingly. 

Our new patients are required to attend our complimentary wellness class, "The Seven Secrets to Better Health and Healing", where we outline the proper lifestyle needed to get the most out of your care plan and help you reach your full genetic potential.
