Your Body May Be Sending You Signals. Our Assessment Helps Us Understand Them.

Every new patient receives three non-invasive INSiGHT scans as part of their initial consultation.

Completed in around 15 minutes, the scans provide additional measurements that your chiropractor considers alongside your health history and clinical assessment.

What if you finally had a clear picture of what your body actually needs? At Adaptive Chiropractic, we help you get that clarity.

Understanding What You’re Feeling Starts With Looking at the Whole Picture.

Pain, stiffness, tension and changes in movement can have different contributing factors. By combining what you tell us, what we assess clinically and the additional measurements from your INSiGHT scans, we can better understand your individual presentation before discussing whether chiropractic care may be appropriate.

What Happens at Your First Chiropractic Appointment?

Your first visit is designed to understand why you’ve booked, assess your individual presentation and explain the findings clearly before appropriate next steps are discussed.

1. Tell Us What’s Been Going On

Your chiropractor will discuss your current concerns, symptoms, health history, previous injuries and factors that may be affecting your day-to-day movement.

2. Complete Your Assessment

Depending on your circumstances, your consultation may include assessment of your movement, posture and relevant orthopaedic or neurological factors.

Your three INSiGHT scans can also be completed as part of your initial assessment.

3. Review Your Findings​

Your chiropractor will explain the relevant findings from your examination and scans and answer any questions you have.

The scan measurements are considered alongside the clinical assessment rather than being used on their own to diagnose a condition.

4. Discuss Your Options

We’ll discuss whether chiropractic care may be appropriate and explain the recommended next steps.

If another type of healthcare or further investigation may be more appropriate, this can also be discussed with you.

Allow approximately 45 minutes for your initial consultation.

How long does my first chiropractic appointment take?

Allow approximately 45 minutes for your initial consultation and assessment.

Your chiropractor will discuss your symptoms and health history before completing relevant clinical assessments. Your first consultation can also include three non-invasive INSiGHT scans.

The findings are then discussed with you before appropriate next steps are considered

INSiGHT scanning provides additional measurements relating to muscle activity, temperature patterns and heart rate variability.

 

Your chiropractor considers these measurements alongside your health history and clinical examination rather than using the scans in isolation.

The clinic’s three INSiGHT scans take approximately 15 minutes to complete and are non-invasive.

No. You can make an appointment directly without a GP referral.

HICAPS is available at the clinic for eligible private health insurance claims. Your rebate depends on your insurer and policy.



The current initial consultation fee is $140.

Same-day or weekend appointments may be available depending on the clinic schedule. Check current availability online or call the clinic.

This depends on your health cover. Most health insurance will cover chiropractic up to a certain percentage. At both our locations in the Melbourne CBD and Richmond, we have HICAPS terminals so you can claim on the spot. For convenience, our item numbers at our Melbourne CBD chiropractic clinic are (1001) for initial consultation and (1005) for subsequent appointments.
This depends on the individual and their symptoms. Some patients get results faster, and some require more time. Our philosophy is to get you in control of your overall health, and understanding your body as soon as possible so you can decide what suits you best!
Again this really comes down to the individual. Are we working with an acute (short term) problem or a chronic (long term) problem. What are other health factors in play? Are you currently exercising and eating well? Any other sneaky habits on weekends? Our Melbourne CBD chiropractors’ job is to ascertain what the main root of the problem is and then help you feel better as soon as we possibly can.
This is entirely up to you! Our philosophy in practice is to take the patient from passive care (where our chiropractors are more hands on) to active care (where the patient and chiropractors work together to achieve your goals) Of course initially if your body requires more attention, you will need more guidance however as you start to understand your body and feel more in harmony, we encourage you to actively take control of your health and decide how long and regular you would like care. In Melbourne City, we have patients who look to be checked regularly as they enjoy the wellness aspects of chiropractic to some who only see us once every few months to years depending on their symptoms!
