A: During your first consultation at My Family Chiro, you can expect a comprehensive and personalized experience. We will begin with a detailed discussion about your medical history and any symptoms you are experiencing. This will be followed by a thorough physical, neurological, and orthopaedic examination. After the assessment, Dr. Luke Schmidt will discuss a tailored treatment plan designed to address your specific needs. At My Family Chiro, we prioritize patient education, so you'll also receive guidance on lifestyle changes and exercises to support your treatment and overall well-being. Our goal is to ensure you feel informed, comfortable, and confident about your care journey with us.
A: At My Family Chiro, we want you to feel comfortable and relaxed during your visit. For your first appointment, we recommend wearing loose-fitting, comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement. Athletic wear such as yoga pants, gym shorts, and t-shirts are ideal. Avoid restrictive clothing like jeans, dresses, and business attire, as you may need to perform simple physical movements during your evaluation. Our goal is to provide the best care possible, and appropriate attire helps us achieve a thorough and effective assessment of your chiropractic needs.
However, this is not a must. We will always find a way to work around what you are wearing for the day.
