No. You do not need a referral to schedule an appointment at Health Wave Chiropractic. If you're dealing with pain, an injury, mobility limitations, or simply want to improve how you move, you can schedule directly with us.

You can schedule your appointment online through our Book Now page. If you have questions before scheduling, you can also contact our office directly and we'll be happy to help.

Your first visit is about getting to know you, not just the area that hurts. We'll discuss what brought you in, your health history, and your goals, then assess your movement and overall function. Depending on what we find, your visit may include chiropractic care and other appropriate therapies. We'll also walk you through our findings and recommendations so you understand what's going on and what comes next.

Your first appointment is one hour. We set aside this time so we can get to know you, understand what you're looking for, and thoroughly assess your movement and overall function. We'll also walk you through what we're finding and explain our recommendations so you understand your care and feel confident moving forward.

Yes. New patient forms should be completed before your first visit whenever possible. Completing them ahead of time helps us spend more of your appointment focused on you and your care.

We'll explain what we found during your assessment and discuss our recommendations with you. If ongoing care is appropriate, we'll work together to determine a plan based on your goals, needs, and lifestyle.
