Everyone has a unique view of health and wellness—and no two bodies are the same. That’s why at Connect Chiropractic, we tailor our care to suit your individual needs, preferences, and goals.
When you book your first chiropractic appointment, we’ll ask you to complete a short form to help us understand your medical history and any specific health concerns. This gives us the best starting point for providing care that truly supports your wellbeing.
Your first visit is all about understanding your body and identifying how we can help you best. We begin by taking a detailed health history to learn what’s brought you to this point in your health journey.
Next, we may carry out a range of assessments—such as postural, orthopaedic, neurological, and spinal examinations—to get a clear understanding of how your body is functioning and what may be contributing to any underlying issues.
Depending on what we find, your chiropractor may decide to begin care with an adjustment during this visit.
This initial appointment takes approximately 30–40 minutes. Once we’ve thoroughly reviewed your results, we’ll schedule a follow-up visit for your Report of Findings, where we’ll walk you through what we’ve discovered and how to move forward.
After reviewing your health history, examination findings, and any relevant tests or X-rays, we’ll clearly explain what we’ve discovered—outlining your current health status and how chiropractic care may help improve it.
We’ll help you understand how different areas of your body are connected and how healing occurs. This visit includes your first full chiropractic adjustment, tailored to your needs.
Because we want to support your health both now and into the future, we’ll also offer lifestyle advice—simple changes you can make between visits to help your body heal and function at its best.
At Connect Chiropractic, we believe in individualised care—because no two people are the same. Everyone has unique preferences, needs, and health goals, and we tailor our approach to suit what works best for you.
With clinics in both Ferrymead and Christchurch City, we’re proud to serve communities across the city’s south-east, including Woolston, Redcliffs, Sumner, and Lyttelton.
