Informed Consent For Treatment
Congratulations on choosing one of the safest and most natural health care programs available!
In accordance with New Jersey state law, this notice is to inform you, as a patient, of the material risks of undergoing chiropractic care and/or physiotherapeutic rehabilitation. Material risk means that there are known inherent risks from a particular treatment and certain complications, though improbable, could occur. These rare complications include, but are not limited to, minor muscle strains, intervertebral disc compromise, fractures, dislocations, skin irritation, and cardiovascular accidents. I understand my doctor will not be able to anticipate all potential complications, but elect to rely on his/her clinical expertise and judgment to determine courses of clinical action, based upon known facts, which are considered in my best interest.
I have read and understand the preceding statements and hereby consent to voluntarily participate in chiropractic care and/or physiotherapeutic rehabilitation procedures as deemed appropriate by my doctor. If at any time I decide that I am unwilling to engage in these procedures, I reserve the right to inform my doctor of such and not participate in these forms of evaluation and treatment. I understand that results are not guaranteed and that I have the opportunity to discuss the purposes and risks associated with all recommended evaluation and treatment procedures at any time.
