Depending on the injury or condition for which you are being treated, initial visits may last 45 to 60 minutes. Subsequent visits are likely to be shorter, but the first visit is intended to begin building the therapeutic relationship, identify the cause of the problem and discuss a treatment plan. As spine, muscle and nervous system experts, chiropractors are extensively trained to assess, diagnose, manage, and prevent reoccurrence of musculoskeletal conditions while specifically addressing your needs and goals. Be sure to clearly communicate your symptoms, needs and goals to your chiropractor. Your first visit at the Decarie chiropractic Clinic goes as follows:<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Projects Section” _builder_version=”3.22.3″ custom_margin=”|||” custom_padding=”29px||29px||true|” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ padding_top_bottom_link_1=”true” admin_label=”Project 01″ _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”7%||7%|” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”1″ _builder_version=”3.27.4″ text_font=”Poppins|800|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”80px” text_line_height=”1em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” animation_direction=”right” global_colors_info=”{}”] 01 [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_cta title=”PATIENT FORM” button_url=”#” _builder_version=”4.9.4″ header_font=”Montserrat|700|||||||” header_text_align=”left” header_text_color=”#1D1F47″ header_font_size=”30px” header_letter_spacing=”1px” header_line_height=”1.5em” body_font=”Montserrat||||||||” body_text_align=”justify” body_text_color=”#212121″ body_font_size=”15px” body_letter_spacing=”1px” body_line_height=”1.8em” use_background_color=”off” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”14px” button_text_color=”#ffffff” button_bg_color=”#383838″ button_border_width=”12px” button_border_color=”#383838″ button_border_radius=”0px” button_letter_spacing=”1px” button_font=”Poppins|||on|||||” button_use_icon=”off” text_orientation=”left” background_layout=”light” animation_direction=”right” button_text_color_hover=”#ffffff” button_border_color_hover=”#3FA2F7 ” button_bg_color_hover=”#3FA2F7 ” global_colors_info=”{}” button_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_size__hover_enabled=”off” button_text_color__hover_enabled=”on” button_text_color__hover=”#000000″ button_one_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_text_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_width__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_color__hover_enabled=”on” button_border_color__hover=”#bfbfbf” button_one_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_one_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_border_radius__hover_enabled=”off” button_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”on” button_one_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_letter_spacing__hover_enabled=”off” button_bg_color__hover_enabled=”on” button_bg_color__hover=”#bfbfbf” button_one_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_two_bg_color__hover_enabled=”off” button_letter_spacing__hover=”2px”]

Diagnostic imaging techniques help narrow down the causes of an injury or disease and ensure that the diagnosis is correct. These techniques include X-rays, computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). If Dr. Goel feels she needs any of the above to learn more about your condition, she will refer you to an appropriate local facility.<\/p>[\/et_pb_cta][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ padding_top_bottom_link_1=”true” admin_label=”Project 01″ _builder_version=”3.25″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”7%||7%|” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”1″ _builder_version=”4.9.4″ text_font=”Poppins|800|||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”80px” text_line_height=”1em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” animation_direction=”right” global_colors_info=”{}”]

After discussing your history and goals with you, examining your spine, and reviewing any x-rays or tests, Dr. Goel will diagnose the cause of your condition.
