Section: First Visit and What to Wear.

Your therapist will ask about your symptoms, medical history, previous surgeries, medications, prior therapy, sleep habits, overall stress level, diet, your goals, preferences, interests and your thoughts.
You can also discuss your attempts to resolve your problem and other concerns.
What should I expect the therapist to evaluate during my first visit?
Your therapist will evaluate the area of concern. Please feel free to tell your therapist if you have anything specific you see as a priority and you want her to look at during the first two visits.
Your therapist may also evaluate your posture, movement, and breathing patterns and ask you to fill out a food or pain diary at home during the following week.
What should I wear during my visits?

Section: Your Visit Experience.
What can I do to get the most out of my therapy sessions?
We recommend that you enjoy the visits, participate in the care, and be an advocate for your own health.
I’m feeling a little nervous about my upcoming evaluation. What extra support can I get to help ease my worries?
I want you to know that you’ll have the same caring and dedicated therapist by your side throughout your entire care plan.
Your visits will be relaxed and unrushed, and you’ll have a say in all the decisions, so you can choose the treatment that feels right for you.
I am a little worried about my finances. Will I have to come see you frequently for many visits in a row?
At our clinic, we aim to make every visit count. We place strong emphasis on education, empowering you to work on aspects of your health at home. That said, you are welcome to come as often as you like.
You are in control of your own health care, and we want you to decide what is best for you.
We generally recommend budgeting for six visits, but precise estimates can be tricky. We will provide a better idea of the potential number of visits after the evaluation.
Remember, you can also see us while you visit another clinic, where your insurance covers the visit.
