Your First Visit to Our Elk Grove Practice

You’ll be warmly welcomed and made to feel at home. Help is on its way!

On your first visit, my staff will help you fill out paperwork and take any insurance information you have so that they can contribute to your care. You will be exposed to some information to better understand what we are trying to accomplish regarding subluxations in your spine and how to address them. Then you we will take a complete history from you and do an exam.

You will meet the doctor who will discuss your concerns and begin to map out a plan to treat you. We may do x-rays with our state-of -the art computerized digital x-ray system and/or a nerve scan with our Myovision unit. The first visit should take 45 minutes to an hour. A second visit will be scheduled usually for the next day so the doctor will have time to review your x-rays and studies and formulate a plan just for you.

Dr. Douglas  Asks some important questions of interest to Elk Grove residents - Chiropractor Elk Grove Dr. Douglas Asks...

How could chiropractic help a stomach problem?
Chiropractic works by locating and reducing areas of the spine compromising nerve communications between your brain and your body. If nerves to or from your stomach are irritated, your stomach won't work right. Chiropractors find the source of the interference, reduce it and allow your body to work as designed.
How long does it take to form a bone spur?
Many who begin chiropractic care think their problem happened "last week when you bent over funny." But pictures of the spine tell a different story. Chiropractors know it can take your body years to deposit the calcium necessary to form a bone spur. It's your body's response to stress due to gravity or joint malfunction. And chiropractic care can help.
