Report of Findings
Once the information is collected and examinations are performed, Dr. Jay Carter will give you a detailed report of all findings and answer any questions including:

  1. How can you help me?
  2. How often do I need to come in?
  3. What will my treatment cost?

After reviewing your health history and performing an examination, Dr. Carter will discuss with you his recommendations for treatment, and provide the best care possible for your specific condition. Depending on what your condition is, this treatment may include Chiropractic Spinal and or Extremity adjustments, adjunctive physiotherapy modalities such as ultrasound and or electrical muscle stimulation, soft tissue massage, etc. Often Dr. Carter will recommend things that you can do at home to help in your recovery such as the use of ice or heat, specific exercises and or stretches for your particular condition, certain activities or positions to avoid, etc. Every person is unique, therefore everyone requires a customized treatment plan designed for their optimal care.
