This initial visit is an opportunity for your doctor to learn more about you, your condition, and your expectations, enabling them to determine how chiropractic care can best meet your goals.

Examination

Following your consultation, your experienced chiropractor at Mid-Atlantic Chiropractic Center will conduct a comprehensive chiropractic examination tailored to your specific needs. This examination will include a range of assessments to evaluate your overall health and wellness.

Your chiropractor will begin by testing your reflexes and flexibility to gain insight into your nervous system function and mobility. Additionally, standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical tests will be performed to further assess your condition.

These tests are essential in helping your chiropractor develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your unique health concerns. They also provide valuable information about your current health status and help determine the most effective chiropractic techniques to achieve optimal results.

Computerized Scan

The INSiGHT neuroTECH perfectly blends advanced scanning technologies with intuitive reporting. By combining Heart Rate Variability, Surface EMG and Thermography, a neural profile is created for any age of patient. These objective examination results create a single-number CORESCORE that informs and inspires your patients. It’s neuroscience at your fingertips.

We all know that Chiropractic is more than simple back or neck therapy. It’s all about restoring FUNCTION which isn’t limited to the spine and joints. Adjustments target vertebral subluxations which affect the spine AND the nervous system. INSiGHT scanning allows the clinician to look deeply into the spinal nerve connections and understand the impact these subluxations have on the overall health of the patient. By using valid, reliable and reproducible scanning technologies, chiropractors can report objective data with a new confidence and deliver care plans that improve lives, not just spines.

X-Ray Studies

X-rays play a crucial role in chiropractic examinations, providing valuable insights into the static alignment and bony changes associated with long-term postural stress. However, at Mid-Atlantic Chiropractic Center, we go beyond conventional x-rays by incorporating state-of-the-art weight-bearing digital x-rays into our diagnostic approach.

Weight-bearing digital x-rays allow us to assess your spine’s alignment and function while you are standing, providing a more comprehensive view of your spinal health. This technology enables us to detect subtle misalignments and abnormalities that may not be visible in traditional x-rays taken while lying down.

In addition to weight-bearing digital x-rays, we utilize INSiGHT technologies to assess the dynamic, neural signals in the motor, sensory, and autonomic divisions of your nervous system. These scans detect unhealthy stress patterns that can affect the performance of your entire nervous system.

By combining the value of weight-bearing digital x-rays with the ease and accuracy of INSiGHT scans, we can track improvements in spinal motion and nerve system function throughout your chiropractic care journey. This comprehensive approach allows us to tailor your treatment plan to address your specific needs, promoting optimal spinal health and overall well-being.
