What to Expect at Palos Chiropractic & Holistic Health

You will immediately feel at home the moment you walk in the door.

If you’ve ever gone to a social event where you didn’t know anyone, you know how uncomfortable that can make you feel. Our goal is to eliminate every shred of apprehension and make you feel at home.

Since chiropractic care involves a series of visits, with each one building on the ones before, it’s important that our relationship can go the distance. We’ve found that one of the best ways to have successful patient relationships is to explain everything in advance. No surprises!

The more you understand who we are, what we do and why we do it, the better results you’ll enjoy. It’s as simple as that.

So, check us out here. Poke around. Get to know us. Then, contact our Palos Heights chiropractic practice to make an appointment so we can begin working together toward getting you to feel good again.

Chiropractic – First Visit

Upon Your First Visit to Our Health Office – Allow 60 – 90 minutes

New patients often remark how comfortable our office is. That’s good, because our goal is to offer top-level chiropractic, nutrition & wellness and acupuncture care in a relaxed surrounding. Patients love the “good energy and feeling”, and comment how it’s not your typical, sterile doctor’s office setting. We’re Glad you’re here.

You’re evidently ready to address your health issues head on. Well, we’re glad you’re here because we are ready for you. You’ll be asked to complete some initial paperwork (if you haven’t downloaded already), present your insurance card if you’ll be using insurance, and an I.D. You will promptly be brought back to our exam room, after a short tour of our health office.

We Explain Everything First

The purpose of your consultation with the doctor is to discuss your health goals and to see if chiropractic is likely to help you. If it looks promising, a thorough exam will help identify the cause of your problem.

Patients appreciate that we explain everything in advance!
