Transforming healthcare
What to expect on your initial consultation?
During your first consultation, Dr Carla will ask you questions in order to map your medical history, and to understand what led you to seek her services. She will enquire about your sleep habits, gut health, exercise regime and any medications or supplements you are taking, including other contributing factors to your general health and wellbeing. Dr Carla may also ask about any recent X-rays, scans or test results that you may have.
Following this, a thorough physical examination will be performed. This may involve assessing ranges of movement, orthopaedic, neurological testing, postural and functional assessments, which will help create an effective management plan.
If it is safe and appropriate to do so, and you feel comfortable with it, Dr Carla may begin chiropractic care on the initial visit.
