Your First Visit at Targeted Chiropractic
Visiting a chiropractor for the first time can feel a little intimidating—but at Targeted Chiropractic in Gilbert, we make the experience smooth, welcoming, and focused entirely on you. Whether you’re coming in for chronic back pain, posture concerns, or just not feeling like yourself, your first visit is all about getting answers, relief, and a clear path forward.
We take our time, listen to your concerns, and deliver personalized care tailored to your goals. If you’ve never had chiropractic care before, or if past visits elsewhere felt rushed or generic, you’re in the right place. Here’s exactly what to expect.
Start Feeling Better From Day One
We believe your first visit shouldn’t just be about paperwork and waiting—it should be the beginning of your relief. That’s why most patients receive their first treatment the same day, right after the initial exam.
During your first visit, you’ll have a one-on-one conversation with the doctor about your symptoms, medical history, and goals. We’ll dive deep into what’s been bothering you, how long it’s been going on, and how it’s impacting your daily life.
This is where our targeted approach begins—no cookie-cutter care, no rushed adjustments. Just real solutions for long-term relief.
What to Expect During Your First Visit
Plan to spend about an hour with us on your first day.
Here’s how the visit is typically structured:
- Initial Intake & Paperwork – Arrive 10–15 minutes early to fill out your new patient forms.
- Consultation & Exam – We’ll assess your posture, mobility, and pain patterns. We may also use orthopedic or neurological tests as needed.
- Soft Tissue Treatment – We begin most visits with gentle myofascial release therapy or muscle work to loosen tight areas before any adjustments.
- Chiropractic Adjustment – If appropriate, you’ll receive your first gentle chiropractic adjustment, customized to your needs.
- Next Steps & Plan – Before you leave, we’ll discuss your findings and walk you through what’s next, including treatment frequency and goals.
Our goal? For you to leave feeling better—not confused or overwhelmed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Your First Visit
Will I get adjusted on the first visit?
In most cases, yes! After your exam and soft tissue work, we usually begin treatment right away—unless there’s a reason to delay (such as needing imaging first).
What should I wear?
Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing is best. You’ll remain fully clothed during treatment.
Do I need x-rays?
Only if clinically necessary. We don’t send every patient out for imaging—we use our hands, experience, and testing to guide your care.
Is it safe if I’ve never been to a chiropractor before?
Absolutely. Chiropractic care is a safe, effective, and natural approach to improving how your body moves and functions. We tailor everything to your comfort level.
