Evaluation and Assessment
Dr. Simon will work with you to outline a specific course of care for your treatment.
He will perform a thorough evaluation in order to determine which course is most appropriate and most effective. This may include questions on the reasons for your seeking chiropractic treatment, health history, other treatments you have undergone, medications, and lifestyle questions.
In addition, a physical examination, laboratory testing, and x-ray or other diagnostic imaging testing may be performed. This information, along with a careful spinal and extremity examination, will provide the information he will need. Your care plan will provide you with an idea of how long, generally, your treatment is expected to take and which methods of care will be used.
