New Patients at
Beyond Wellness Chiropractic
Your First Visit
We’ll ask you to complete some paperwork to get a better idea of your current concerns and health history. The new patient paperwork is also available on our website and can be completed in advance. After an office tour, you’ll meet with Dr. Raphael for:
- A consultation discussing your health concerns and issues
- Digital postural analysis
- Surface EMG (if needed)
- Digital X-rays taken on-site (if needed)
This visit will last about 45-60 minutes, and we encourage you to bring any relevant medical records or information you believe is important.
Your Next Steps to Well-being
At the end of your first appointment, Dr. Raphael may suggest a short trial of care (often one to four visits) based on what was observed during your assessment. He will also book a follow-up appointment to review your digital X-rays (if taken), explain the findings clearly, and discuss next steps that fit your needs and preferences.
During a trial of care, some people notice mild soreness or stiffness after their first few visits as the body adapts. Others notice very little change right away—and that can be normal too. If a visit schedule is suggested, it’s to keep the process consistent and help you get the clearest information before your follow-up discussion. If anything feels unusual or you have questions between visits, please let our team know.
Your Report of Findings
and Doctor’s Report
This visit is a dedicated time to review what was observed during your first appointment. We’ll review your findings (including any digital X-rays), answer your questions, and explain next steps in a clear, patient-friendly way.
To ensure we can give you the time you deserve, we schedule this appointment outside of our regular hours whenever possible. The goal is to help you understand what may be contributing to your concerns and what your care options typically involve.
We want you to feel informed and comfortable moving forward. Decisions about your health are always up to you.
What to Expect on Your Regular Visits
During your regular visits with us, you’ll complete specific spinal warm-up exercises before your adjustment with Dr. Raphael. These help prepare your body for the visit and support consistency over time.
You can expect to spend about 10-15 minutes with us. We do our best to respect your time and keep your visit as efficient as possible.
