New Patients

What To Expect On Your First Visit:

  1. You and Dr. Galzarano will discuss your reason for seeking care along with your medical history and any other pertinent information.
  2. Posture photos against a grid to measure how your body has adapted to gravity
  3. Computerized Range of Motion measurements to record restrictions in general movements
  4. Non-invasive Surface EMG testing to measure the activity of the supporting muscles of the spine
  5. Motion palpation testing to zero in on restrictions and tenderness in specific areas of the spine
  6. Muscle testing to detect weak muscles
  7. Balance testing because you balance on one leg with every step you take
  8. Gait testing. Simply watching you walk up and down the corridor can yield important information
  9. Leg length measurement. A slightly shorter leg requires accommodation throughout the body
  10. X-rays. Problematic areas may require x-rays which are done in the office and included in the fee
  11. Adjunctive therapies such as traction, electrical muscle stimulation, ultrasound if needed
  12. Chiropractic adjustments of indicated spinal joints as well as joints of the upper and lower extremities (shoulder, wrist, knee, foot, ankle, etc.) when necessary
(You will be given a copy of your posture photos after they are analyzed, as well as readouts of your Range of Motion and Surface EMG tests. If x-rays are taken, you will receive a disc with the x-rays and an embedded program that allows them to be read, zoomed in on, and otherwise manipulated to allowed detailed analysis.)
