Your First Visit and Our Approach

One thing is sure; if you’re in pain, your body is telling you something. Finding out what’s causing your discomfort as soon as possible is the best way to ensure the problem is taken care of and doesn’t lead to more significant pain or pain spreading to other areas.

With our streamlined, comprehensive chiropractic care solutions, you get an effective, safe outcome. If you’ve never been to a chiropractor and are feeling anxious, Dr. Peters will make sure you leave our office feeling confident and knowing that your body’s health goals are our priority.

Upon your first visit, you’ll likely experience something like this: 

  • A consultation regarding your medical history, current pain points and lifestyle, and health goals 
  • A physical, comprehensive evaluation that accurately determines the source of your pain, inclusive of functional movement testing, muscle testing, and strength testing
  • A discussion about the solution plan we think will benefit you best, safely maximizing your time with us
  • After agreed upon, we’ll begin the program, which often entails chiropractic service, rehabilitation exercises, and more on day one, so come prepared!

 

For every visit, we recommend wearing comfortable clothing that allows Dr. Peters access to the areas of concern. You can expect to visit with us for about 45 minutes unless previously discussed. 

Your body’s safety and capabilities are always respected. We hope to find balance and strength as we get to the root of your pain; although our treatments work aggressively, they will never compromise your body or your peace of mind. We will enlist a plan that is tailored exclusively for you and your needs. 

If you ever feel uncomfortable with your plan or a specific chiropractic technique, we want to know about it. Admittedly, some services may require some hard work on your part or be a bit more challenging, but we won’t ask you to do anything you can’t handle. We’re here to help you get your life back, and we will do so with your personal needs in mind. 

Our multimodal treatment approach aims to match the right patients with the right treatments at the right time. Our toolbox is expanded compared to the traditional chiropractic approach and allows us to better serve our patients.

Access to new patient forms prior to your first visit allows us to maximize time in assessment and treatment on your initial visit.

OMNE’s Common Chiropractic Services

With so many patients come injuries of all levels and kinds, caused by a variety of reasons. Some of our patients are suffering due to poor posture and bad ergonomics. Others have been injured in an auto accident. Still, others are aiming to achieve higher athletic capabilities. 

Some people experience severe trauma that necessitates chiropractic care. Many we work with have been improperly using their body for years and need retraining. Whether something happened all at once or you’ve steadily noticed an increase in discomfort over a period of time, we can help. 

Listening to your body is a vital step in its swift recovery process. When we don’t listen to it, the pain will spread to other areas, as muscles and joints need to work harder or overcompensate for those that are injured. Something that started as a loss of mobility can turn into debilitating pain. 

OMNE Chiropractic will learn all it can about your symptoms so we can find your correct health plan and get your body up and functioning as it was meant to. Our care will give you a smart, safe solution, so you feel confident in your body’s abilities. 

Chiropractic Manipulation

Manual adjusting techniques restore joint motion and decrease pain. Adjusting targeted areas that need it most helps relieve discomfort and get you moving again. Manipulative techniques are low-force and utilize a shallow thrust to restore motion in restricted joints. An adjustment is often accompanied by a “pop” sound, which is air being released from the joint. 

Chiropractic Manipulation

Dry Needling

Dry needling is a soft tissue technique that involves applying a solid filament needle in areas of muscle dysfunction to improve tissue quality and pain. In addition, intramuscular stimulation utilizes a low-level electrical current that helps relieve muscle tension and helps ease post needling soreness.

Myofascial Release

Myofascial release involves the mobilization of soft tissues both manually and with the use of instruments to improve the resiliency of muscles while decreasing muscle tension. Hands-on and instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization is a form of sports massage that helps aching and injured muscles recover. 

Myofascial Release

Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy (MDT)

MDT is an evidence-based mechanical evaluation and treatment system that utilizes various dynamic movements to put patients in control of their pain and improve their joint health. The assessment will precisely determine the reason for your pain and help guide you on the next steps to its removal. 

Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS)

A rehabilitation technique based on developmental kinesiology, designed to stabilize the joints and muscles of the body. This technique helps Dr. Peters evaluate and guide movement, serving as a foundation for exercise prescription and rehabilitation techniques. 

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization

Graston Technique

Using chiropractic instruments made of surgical-grade stainless steel, this treatment targets scar tissue and other unhealthy tissue to increase blood flow, improve tissue health, and aid in recovery. This technique provides intentional and quick assistance to areas in need, often giving immediate relief from discomfort and restoring function.

Graston Technique - Sports Chiropractor

McKenzie Method

Utilizing the patient’s independence, this treatment plan uses chiropractic care and exercises to minimize pain through self-healing. It benefits acute and chronic conditions of the spine and the extremities (ankles, feet, hands, etc.). Exercises can be completed at home and at the office to help decrease pain, improve function, and prevent a recurrence.

Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy

Functional Rehabilitation and Therapeutic Exercise

In-office and at-home injury and sports rehab exercises help our patients recover quicker. 

Patients are empowered with exercises for self-treatment, achieving faster results and staying on top of their condition. It means less time spent in the office and more time doing what they love.

Functional Rehabilitation

Kinesio Tape

Generally used on our athletic patients, this tape is applied to the skin over an affected area of the body. It serves to alleviate pain and remove swelling as it supports muscles and joints. It is also a useful proprioceptive tool, providing the patient with improved sensory feedback for better movement and control.

Advanced training in rehab techniques includes Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization, McKenzie Method, and strength and conditioning principles.
