What to Expect in Miami

Welcome to New Leaf Chiropractic in Miami! We hope you feel at home in our friendly office. We like to think that healing begins at our front desk. Our friendly, awesome staff will make you feel right at home from the moment you arrive. You’ll notice a positive, charged environment within our practice. We maintain designated hours for examinations and adjustments as well as separate, quieter times for meeting with patients to discuss recommendations and care plans. Everything we do is designed with you in mind. You can expect to have a fantastic – and interesting – first experience. The Team will work with you closely to find out exactly how to serve you best and give you clear instructions around next steps.

Your First Visit

Once you’ve scheduled your first visit, you will receive a welcome email with a video message that will help set your expectations for your first visit with us. This will include a link to our new patient forms online. When you arrive for your appointment, your doctor will take time to connect with you and learn more about your immediate health concerns or challenges. We’ll ask about your health history and any history of trauma. This visit is all about getting to know you. From this consultation, we’ll determine which examinations are necessary to help us gain the information we need to address your health concerns. Your doctor will perform specific and unique exams to check the health of your spine and nervous system – specifically measuring how your body is responding to stress. Your measure of health is simply how responsive your body is to stress that originates from both inside and outside your body. For your convenience, we complete all testing on site, including digital X-rays if needed. You can expect this first visit to last approximately 45-60 minutes.

Your Second Visit

After your first visit, your doctor will take some time to review the results of your consultation and examination. You’ll be presented with a report of findings that will help you understand what was found and what we believe we can do to help. Together, we’ll discuss your health challenges and goals, which will help shape our recommendations for care. If the doctor confirms that we can help you; you will receive your recommendations for care. If you decide to move forward, you’ll be ready for your first adjustment. Like your first visit, you’ll want to allow approximately 45-60 minutes for this visit.

Future Visits

We want to help you take an active role in your health. Regularly scheduled appointments will typically last 15-25 minutes. After you check in, you’ll begin doing your rehab exercises before your specific chiropractic adjustment. At each visit, we’ll perform a quick check of your spine before performing the adjustments specific to your care plan. We’ll also discuss your role in your health and healing – and teach you what you can do to get better results, faster.

We Teach Our Patients The “3 Legged Stool of Results”

1. Keep a rhythm of adjustments
2. Break bad habits that lead to spinal problems like subluxation
3. Add specific exercises to strengthen the spine and help you hold your adjustments better

We find that patients appreciate being able to take an active role in their health, especially when that gets them better, faster results. We’ll work together to ensure that you are on your way to living a healthier lifestyle, free from pain and sickness. We can often accommodate same day appointments for acute cases to help you prevent experiencing gaps in your care.
