Discover what happens during your first chiropractic appointment

How to Prepare

What to Expect

Before your appointment, here are a few simple ways to make your visit smoother:
  • Complete Your Digital Intake Forms: Fill out your forms before arriving so your visit can begin smoothly, efficiently, and without unnecessary delays.
  • Wear Comfortable Clothing: Choose loose-fitting clothing that allows you to move easily during your consultation, exam, and any recommended movement assessments.
  • Bring Your Essentials: Please bring your insurance card and a valid form of identification, such as your driver’s license or ID.

During your first appointment, Dr. Michael Brosseau will take time to understand your health history, lifestyle, symptoms, mobility, and personal wellness goals.

From there, he will perform a detailed chiropractic evaluation to better understand the underlying causes of your pain, discomfort, movement limitations, or related symptoms — so your care plan can be built around what your body actually needs.

Your first visit is designed to give us a clear, complete picture of what’s going on — not just where it hurts.

 When you arrive, you’ll meet Dr. B and review your New Patient Paperwork together.

 We’ll talk through your symptoms, pain patterns, mobility issues, posture, health history, and wellness goals — including important lifestyle factors like your work, hobbies, past injuries, sleep, stress, and daily routines.

 Our goal is simple: understand the source of the problem, address your immediate concerns, and create a personalized care plan designed to help you feel better, move better, and function better.

A Precision Evaluation Built to Find the Root Cause

  • Posture Analysis: Assesses alignment, muscle balance, and postural patterns that may be contributing to pain, tension, or restricted movement.
  • Functional Movement Tests: Identifies movement restrictions that may affect comfort, stability, performance, and everyday function.
  • Range of Motion Assessments: Checks joint mobility, flexibility, and movement limitations that may be placing extra stress on your body.
  • Orthopedic Evaluations: Helps form a clearer clinical picture of possible musculoskeletal issues affecting the spine, joints, muscles, or surrounding tissues.
  • Neurological Examinations: Evaluates nervous system function, including reflexes, sensation, strength, and nerve-related symptoms.
  • X-rays: When medically required, imaging may be used to help identify underlying conditions contributing to pain, dysfunction, or structural concerns.

Are X-Rays
Always
Necessary?

X-rays are only recommended when they are clinically necessary — not as a routine shortcut.

 At McLeod Street Chiropractic, X-rays are prescribed only when they are needed for clearer diagnosis, safer treatment planning, or a better understanding of what may be causing your pain.

 When appropriate, X-rays can help identify the source of pain, rule out serious concerns, confirm structural alignment, and guide your care with more clarity.

 If imaging is needed, it helps Dr. B better target your treatment based on your individual needs — not guesswork.

 If anything more serious is detected, we will promptly refer you to the most relevant medical specialist for the right level of care.

 The goal is thoughtful, tailored, and safe care — guided by the right information at the right time.

At Mcleod Street Chiropractic, we believe everyone deserves a body that supports the life they love.
