What to Expect at Your First Adjustment

October 16, 2025

If you’ve never been to a chiropractor before, your first visit can feel a little intimidating. But it doesn’t have to be!


Here’s what you can expect when you walk into Working Body Chiropractic for your first adjustment:


  • First, you’ll have a detailed consultation where we learn about your health history, any pain or discomfort, and your wellness goals.


  • Second, we’ll perform a gentle physical exam, including posture and spinal assessments.


  • Lastly,  the adjustment is a precise, gentle technique designed to improve nervous system function and relieve tension. Most patients feel relief immediately, and the procedure is often painless or even relaxing.


We’ll finish by discussing a personalized plan to support your health, including follow-up visits and at-home care tips. You’re in control every step of the way, and we’re here to answer all your questions.

Modern life can be overwhelming. Between long hours at desks, constant screen time, and everyday stress, your nervous system often bears the brunt of it all. But what does it mean when your nervous system is stressed? Your nervous system controls everything in your body — from how you move, to how you heal, to how you feel. When it's under stress, signals don’t flow properly, leading to issues like tension, pain, fatigue, and reduced immunity. Chiropractic care focuses on restoring proper nervous system function. By gently adjusting your spine, we help remove interference and improve communication between your brain and body. This can reduce stress symptoms and support your overall health.  If you feel constantly tired, tense, or off-balance, your nervous system might be crying out for some care. Schedule a consultation to see how chiropractic can help you restore balance and vitality.
