Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in the new patient experience?
Your new patient experience includes a thorough health history consultation (over the phone), a physical assessment, chiropractic care where appropriate, and clear recommendations for next steps. We take time to understand your full picture, not just the symptom in front of us.
How soon postpartum can I book in?
It depends on your birth and how you’re feeling. If you’re unsure, contact us and we’ll help you choose an appropriate next step.
I had my baby 2 years ago, is this still postpartum?
Absolutely! Postpartum doesn't end with your 6 week check, any time after having a birth is still postpartum and you may still benefit from an assessment.
What do I wear to my first appointment?
We suggest wearing comfortable clothing that you are able to move in.
Do I need a referral?
No. You can book directly online.
What if I'm not sure this is right for me?
That's completely okay. You can contact us with any questions, or book a complimentary discovery call and we'll help you decide on the most appropriate next step.
