Sometimes, during your first visit to your chiropractor, they may order X-rays or refer you to your family doctor or a nurse practitioner for diagnostic tests, such as lab work or advanced imaging, as part of their assessment process.
Using the best available evidence and their clinical expertise your chiropractor will then be able to assess and diagnose issues affecting your body’s movement. Once they have made a diagnosis, they can develop a treatment plan to specifically meet your needs and preferences. Read our home page
If they suspect you have a condition that’s more appropriate for another health care professional to treat, your chiropractor will make a referral. They will also coordinate with other health care professionals and support your overall treatment with chiropractic care, as needed.
