What to expect when you come to see us
Our consultation fee includes taking a full history, giving an examination, explaining the findings and, for uncomplicated problems of recent onset, discussing treatment options. If the problem is of long standing then history is likely to be more complicated and there may be information needed or decisions that need to be made before treatment can commence, this will be explained to you at the time and treatment will commence at your second visit.
Our follow up visits include an update on the situation since the last visit, an explanation of any changes and treatment and/or advice and exercise. Each time we see you we conduct a review informally, we set goals during the course of treatment and use these as more formal reviews. Nothing is set in stone and everyone is unique but making sure that your expectations and ours are aligned is important as it directly affects outcome.
Treatments are usually given in a course, as a general guide the more recent the onset and the less previous history you have the faster we might expect you to respond and, therefore, the less treatment you will need, there are of course exceptions!
If you wanted to get a rough idea of overall commitment then the national average for chiropractic treatments per new problem is seven, given the above fee structure therefore, a course of treatment for a new problem would cost about £350, however as already explained there are exceptions and everyone is, to a degree, unique. However given our experience (26 and 39 years respectively) and our level of post graduate study we expect to provide a detailed understanding of your problem and give you an exact idea of what is going on, why and what you can expect from treatment.
