By consulting our office you are taking an exciting first step
towards better health. Your initial office visit at Active Health & Wellness is often very different from any follow up visits. At your first visit, you'll be asked to fill out some paperwork about your current condition and your past health history. This information will be used by Dr. Starr to get a better picture of your overall health status before meeting with you to discuss your health concerns & goals. Following that, you and Dr. Starr will go over the health information on the intake forms.
After the health details are gathered, a comprehensive examination will follow. The physical examination performed by Dr. Starr varies depending on the nature of the complaint. It is tailored to fit the regions involved and may include some range of motion tests, reflexes, muscle tests, neurological tests and other orthopedic/chiropractic tests to help identify all the factors that are contributing towards your health complaint. His examination is thorough and will put you at ease.
Comprehensive, thorough & in-depth... these are the perfect words to use in explaining an Active Health & Wellness Chiropractic examination.
When it comes to your health, would you expect anything else?
In cases where problems can be identified to the neuro-musculoskeletal structures, and when appropriate, Dr. Starr may adjust the joints and do soft tissue work to the surrounding areas. Active Release Techniques, therapeutic massage techniques, ultrasound, electrotherapy modalities, hot/cold therapy, and therapeutic exercise prescriptions are also commonly applied treatments. Dr. Starr also counsels his patients about wellness concepts such as nutrition, exercise and stress management all contributing towards a more pro-Active & pain free lifestyle.
