What to expect at your first visit?
Some people have never been to a chiropractor or have different experiences from chiropractors. This page is designed to let you know what to expect from us at Ben McGrath Chiropractic.
​
The format of the first consultation involves a discussion to better understand your complaint and any relevant medical details. Following this we undertake a comprehensive physical examination which consists of neurological and orthopaedic testing.
​
After discussing your diagnosis with you, it is likely that we will be able to perform treatment straight away. Treatment may involve spinal and peripheral joint manipulation, strengthening/stretching exercises, mobilisation, dry needling, soft tissue work, instrument assisted soft tissue work, activator, cold laser, ergonomic and postural advice.
​
We may require to undertake further tests such as X-Rays or blood tests but these are obtained on a case by case basis.
For more information on our treatment, we have included details in the "Our Approach" tab.
