Make yourself comfortable.
What to expect, what to bring and how to take the next step.

Do I need a GP referral?
You can request an appointment directly. We assess whether chiropractic care is suitable and explain if advice from another health professional is needed.
What happens at the first appointment?
We listen to your concerns, discuss your health history and explain a suitable examination. We then talk through the findings and options before you decide on any care.
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable clothes that let you move easily. We explain any need to change clothing before an examination and provide a gown where needed. You can ask questions at any point.
How long does the first visit take?
Allow around 45 minutes for a new patient assessment. Follow-up appointments are usually 15 to 20 minutes. These are sample appointment lengths.
What should I bring?
Bring a list of medicines and any relevant reports you already have, plus the questions you would like to discuss. You do not need to arrange new tests before visiting.
Will I need an X-ray?
Imaging is not part of a routine first appointment. Your chiropractor explains if further investigation or referral is appropriate; this demo does not offer an imaging booking.
Can I choose whether to have treatment?
Yes. Your chiropractor explains the proposed approach, alternatives and possible risks and asks for your consent. You can ask questions, decline or stop at any time.
How many appointments will I need?
There is no standard number for everyone. Recommendations follow the assessment, your goals and your preferences, with agreed reviews along the way.
Can I use my health insurance?
The sample practice accepts major health insurers. Check your policy, any referral requirement and authorisation before arranging care. No real insurer relationship is claimed by this fictional practice.
Where can I see the fees?
The Fees page shows the sample new patient assessment, follow-up and optional package. Any plan would be discussed after assessment.
Can someone come with me?
You can ask to bring a companion or request a chaperone. Tell us what would help you feel comfortable before your visit.
How can I change an appointment?
Use the contact form and choose an existing appointment. This demo sends nothing, but shows how a real practice could handle the request.
