Informed Consent

Chiropractic Care:
I will use my hands or a mechanical instrument upon your body in such a way as to move your joints. This procedure is referred to as "Spinal Adjustment." As the joints in your spine are moved, you may experience a "pop" as part of the process..

There are certain, rare complications that can occur as a result of a spinal manipulation. These compilations include, but are not limited to: muscle strain, cervical myelopathy, disc and vertebral injury, strains and dislocations, costovertebral strains and separation. Extremely rare complications include, but are not limited to stroke or fracture. The most common complication or complaint following spinal manipulation is an ache or stiffness at the site of adjustment.

Physical Therapy:
I understand that the exercises and myofascial release I receive is provided for relief of muscular tension and pain. If I experience any discomfort, I will immediately inform the therapist so that the pressure can be adjusted
to my level of comfort. I agree to keep the therapist updated to any changes in my health and understand that there shall be no liability on the therapist's part if I fail to do so.

Naturopathic Care:
I understand that all injection treatments are accompanied by possible risks. Risks include bruising, temporary increase in pain, inflammation, infection, allergic reaction, numbness, weakness or paralysis, spinal headache, lung puncture or death as a result of, or in relation to the injections.

Injections may include nerve blocks, Intravenous therapies, trigger blocks, intramuscular injections, scar therapy, joint/tendon/ligament injections, or prolotherapy.

I understand that insurance reimbursement for injections varies and that prolotherapy may be considered investigational or experimental by some carriers or Medicare.

I am aware of all of the above mentioned complications for each therapy I may receive, and in order to minimize their occurrence I will take precautions. I have been given the opportunity to discuss the nature and purpose of all treatments in this office, alternative methods of treatment, risks and complications associated with them. I acknowledge that all my questions have been answered to my satisfaction and that I have been further told that any additional questions I may have will be answered.

If my child is a minor, I have given consent for him/her to receive the necessary care in this clinic according to
this consent.

I agree to the privacy policy.
