What to Expect
Our primary goals for your first visit are to determine the exact causes of your symptoms and to make sure we can help you.
You will undergo an extensive interview and thorough examination. Afterwards Dr. Mealey will tell you his impressions. If he thinks you have a condition appropriate for chiropractic care, he will discuss his diagnosis and treatment plan with you. If you need a referral or suggestions for alternative treatment options, he will provide that too.
Dr. Mealey's primary tools are his hands and his many years of experience as a chiropractic doctor and massage therapist. He utilizes a combination of chiropractic manipulation, soft tissue massage techniques, and physiotherapies including heat, ice, electrical muscle stimulation and ultrasound. Doctor Mealey also uses the Graston Technique and Spinal Decompression Traction to affect non-surgical solutions for some symptoms. He does not prescribe medications or perform surgery.
Self-help tools may be introduced when appropriate. These include exercise and postural instructions, nutritional counseling or lifestyle changes.
You may decide to participate in our Wellness Plan which promotes a healthy life style that will prevent many potential problems from re-occurring. We invite you to discuss this with Dr Mealey on your first or subsequent visit.
