Report of Findings

After reviewing your health history, goals, and examining your spine and X-rays, Dr. Kim will discuss recommendations and notify you if your condition requires care with other providers. Dr. Kim will provide the best treatment and wellness program for your needs. We offer Special Pricing for Senior, Youth.
X-Ray Studies
Depending on your specific condition, Dr. Kim may ask you to take X-rays.
Why would you need X-Rays done? Because the X-rays help Dr. Kim develop the most effective treatment plan for you, and alert him of any serious spinal conditions.
Most people are amazed once they see their X-rays up close. In some cases, they can even identify their misalignment and degeneration themselves, which implies a different approach for your Chiropractic Treatment Care.
Wellness Program
Prior to leaving, the Doctor will suggest a wellness program to incorporate outside of treatment. If you are in pain when you first come into our office this may include: ice or heat application instructions, certain activities or positions to avoid, and at home exercises and/or stretches. If you desire, our wellness team will work with you also to create healthy habits and routines for your lifestyle.
Every person is unique, therefore everyone requires a customized wellness plan.
The purpose of our wellness program is for you to achieve good spinal alignment, have a healthy diet, exercise, and maintain a positive mental state. Beside Chiropractic treatments Dr. Kim might suggest Massage therapy and/or Acupuncture sessions right before you Chiropractic appointment, which we provide at the clinic! This way your muscles will be relaxed by the time your chiropractic appointment happens, and your adjustments would stay in position longer!
