What To Expect At Your First Visit

Your First Visit at Aden Chiropractic

Choosing the right chiropractor is important. At Aden Chiropractic, we make your first visit clear, thorough, and focused on understanding the root cause of your concern — not just treating symptoms.

From the moment you walk in, our goal is simple:

Measure. Understand. Personalize. Restore.

Step 1: Pre-Visit Preparation

Before your appointment, you will:

  • Complete digital intake paperwork

  • Share your health history and current concerns

  • Provide any imaging (if available)

  • Verify insurance or payment details

This allows us to maximize your time in the office and focus immediately on what matters most.

What we ask from you:
Arrive a few minutes early, wear comfortable clothing, and come ready to discuss your goals.

Step 2: Comprehensive Consultation

Your visit begins with a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Jeremiah Aden DC.

We will discuss:

  • Your primary complaint

  • When and how it started

  • Previous injuries or care

  • Lifestyle factors (work, sports, stress, posture)

  • Your long-term movement and health goals

This is not rushed. We take time to listen.

What we expect from you:
Be open and honest about symptoms, past injuries, and activity level. The more we understand, the better we can help.

Step 3: Advanced Movement & Physical Assessment

 This is where Aden Chiropractic stands apart.

Your exam may include:

  • Orthopedic and neurological testing

  • Postural analysis

  • Range-of-motion testing

  • AI-powered movement analysis (when appropriate)

  • Functional balance and stability assessment

This allows us to objectively identify the root cause of dysfunction — not just where it hurts.

What we expect from you:
Participate actively during testing and communicate any discomfort clearly.

Step 4: Report of Findings & Personalized Plan

After your assessment, we review:

  • What we found

  • The underlying cause of your symptoms

  • Recommended treatment plan

  • Expected timeline for improvement

  • Home exercises or lifestyle modifications

We believe in transparency and measurable progress.

You will understand:

  • Why you’re hurting

  • What we’re going to do

  • How long it will likely take

Step 5: Treatment & Rehabilitation

If appropriate, treatment may begin on the first visit and may include:

  • Targeted chiropractic adjustments

  • Soft tissue therapy

  • Corrective exercises

  • Kinesiology taping

  • Movement retraining

Your care is always personalized — never cookie-cutter.

Your Role in the Process

Successful outcomes depend on partnership.

We ask that you:

  • Follow through with recommended exercises

  • Attend scheduled appointments

  • Communicate changes or concerns

  • Commit to improving movement patterns

Healing is collaborative.
