What to Expect

What to Expect Your First Visit

Our Wellness Center is a state of the art healing facility.  On your first visit to our wellness center you will be greeted by our warm, caring and friendly staff.  A thorough health history, consultation and examination will be performed.  During the examination the Chiropractor will feel and motion palpate your spine to check for subluxations (misalignment's of the spine).  A scan of your spine will also be performed.  This will be done by using an Insight Millenium Subluxation Station to record both an infra-red and Surface Electromyography (SEMG) reading.  This will give a computerized evaluation to help show the area of the subluxations.  Then, if necessary you will receive Digital X-rays to see the precise misalignment of the spine.  The x-rays are then digitized and analyzed on the computer to record the necessary information.  The information from your health history, consultation, examination and x-rays are then analyzed and a detailed report will be prepared.

Your Second Visit

The Chiropractor will go over the report of his findings with the patient.  A narrative report of these findings will also be given to the patient.  At this time the Chiropractor will give his best recommendations for chiropractic care.  You will then receive a chiropractic adjustment utilizing the Gonstead technique.

Dr. Payne  Asks some important questions of interest to Destin residents - Chiropractor Destin Dr. Payne Asks...

What causes vertebral subluxations?
Chiropractors acknowledge three types of stress: physical, chemical and emotional. When the adaptive capacity of your body is compromised, weakened areas along the spine can become involved. Muscles tighten, spinal joints lock up and nearby nerves are affected. The purpose of chiropractic care is to find these areas and restore balance, alignment and motion.
Why are frequent visits advised when starting chiropractic care?
Consistent visits at the beginning of your chiropractic care help create the momentum necessary to correct and retrain unhealthy spinal patterns. Later, Destin patients find that continued care on a less frequent visit schedule can help preserve their progress and avoid a relapse.
