    The nature of the chiropractic adjustment:

    The primary treatment I use as a Doctor of Chiropractic is spinal manipulative therapy. I will use that procedure to treat you. I will use a mechanical instrument upon your body in such a way as to move your joints. You may feel a sense of movement.

    Analysis / Examination / Treatment

    As part of the analysis, examination, and treatment, your are consenting to the following procedures:

    • Spinal manipulative therapy
    • palpation
    • vital signs
    • range of motion testing
    • basic neurological testing
    • ultrasound
    • Orthopedic testing
    • muscle strength testing
    • postural analysis
    • EMS
    • hot/cold therapy
    • radiographic studies
  • The material risks inherent in chiropractic adjustment.

    As with any healthcare procedure, there are certain complications which may arise during chiropractic manipulation and therapy. These complications include but are not limited to: fractures, disc injuries, dislocations, muscle strain, cervical myelopathy, costovertebral strains and separations, and burns. Some types of manipulation of the neck have been associated with injuries to the arteries in the neck leading to or contributing to serious complications including stroke. Some patients will feel some stiffness and soreness following the first few days of treatments. I will make every reasonable effort during the examination to screen for contraindications to care; however, if you have a condition that would otherwise not come to my attention, it is your responsibility to inform me.

    The probability of those risks occurring.

    Stroke has been the subject of tremendous disagreement. The incidences of stroke are exceedingly rare and are estimated to occur between one in one million and one in five million cervical adjustments. The other complications are also generally described as rare.

    The availability and nature of other treatment options.

    Other treatment options for your condition may include:
    1-Self-administered, over-the-counter analgesics and rest 2-Medical care and prescription drugs such as anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxants and painkillers 3-Hospitalization 4-Surgery

    If you chose to use one of the above noted “other treatment” options, you should be aware that there are risks and benefits of such options and you may wish to discuss these with your primary medical physician.

    The risks and dangers attendant to remaining untreated.

    Remaining untreated may allow the formation of adhesions and reduce mobility which may set up a pain reaction further reducing mobility. Over time this process may complicate treatment making it more difficult and less effective the longer it is postponed.

    DO NOT SIGN UNTIL YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE ABOVE.

    I have read the above explanation of the chiropractic adjustment and related treatment. I have discussed it with the Doctor Coykendall at Coykendall Chiropractic Office and have had my questions answered to my satisfaction.

  • CANCELLATION POLICY/NO SHOW POLICY

  • 1. Cancellation/No Show Policy

          We understand that there are times when you must miss an appointment due to
    emergencies or obligations for work of family. However, when you do not call to cancel an appointment, you may be preventing another patient from getting much needed treatment. Conversely, the situation may arise where another patient fails to cancel and we are unable to schedule you for a visit, due to a seemingly “full” appointment book. 

           If an appointment is not cancelled at least 24 hours in advance you will be charged a twenty five dollar ($25) fee; this will not be covered by your insurance company.

    2. Scheduled Appointments
           We understand that delays can happen, however we must try to keep the other patients and doctor on time. If a patient is 15 minutes past their scheduled time, we may have to reschedule the appointment.
