After the First Visit
Thank you for entrusting us with your care, and congratulations on taking the first step toward better health! This page is designed to provide all the necessary information for your continued care and help you understand what to expect after your initial visit.
Cold Pack Instructions
In most cases (about 95%), we recommend applying cold packs to the area in question. Apply the cold pack for 20 minutes, then take a break for 2 hours before repeating. Be careful not to use ice for extended periods as this can increase blood flow to the area, which might not benefit your condition.
Our Treatment Approach
We aim to treat conditions where we can make a significant impact compared to traditional medical interventions. Whether it’s a jammed joint, inflammation, or muscle damage, our goal is to reduce swelling and promote healing. You’ll likely notice positive changes within 1-3 visits, and even muscle and ligament damage can show improvement in about two appointments.
Thorough Diagnosis Process
We dedicate substantial time to your initial diagnosis—sometimes up to an hour. Unlike many practices, we don’t rush to order imaging studies immediately. Instead, we rely on hands-on assessments to understand your unique situation.
Personalized Treatment Plans
We pride ourselves in not following a one-size-fits-all approach like some chain chiropractic clinics. Dr. Plummer’s treatment plan is personalized to address your specific needs and health goals.
Patient Communication
Due to Dr. Plummer’s slight vision impairment from past eye operations, please remember to communicate your diagnosis when you come to the office.
Value-Based Approach
We aim to offer the best value in town by providing high-quality service and attention. While we work with insurance, please note that most policies may not cover the optimal care you need. If your condition requires more than a few visits, we’ll discuss value-based packages for multiple treatments.
