To prepare for your visit, log in to your patient portal to fill out all required information and upload any relevant medical records, like past imaging. Wear loose, comfortable clothing so you can move easily during your appointment (please no skirts).

During your visit, we’ll review your medical history and any recent changes. We’ll talk about exercises and lifestyle tips tailored just for you. If you’re visiting in person, we’ll do a detailed musculoskeletal exam and apply gentle osteopathic manipulative treatment to areas that need care. Together, we’ll create a personalized plan to help you feel your best.

After your visit, you might feel a little sore from new exercises or osteopathic manipulative treatment. To feel better, stay hydrated, rest well, and avoid any heavy activities.

How often you visit depends on how long your issue has been present and how quickly you can adopt recommended exercises or lifestyle changes. Most patients come every 1-2 weeks for 3-4 visits, with appointments spaced out as you improve. Our goal is to help you need us less over time.
