First Visit

What to Expect at Your First Visit

If you are new to Advanced Chiropractic & Massage, your first visit is designed to help us understand your condition and determine whether chiropractic care is appropriate for you.

After completing your intake forms, you will meet with Dr. McCay to discuss your health history, current symptoms, and any injuries or concerns. If chiropractic care appears appropriate, Dr. McCay will perform an examination focused on the affected area. X-rays or other diagnostic imaging may be recommended when clinically indicated.

After the examination, Dr. McCay will discuss the findings with you and recommend an appropriate treatment plan. When appropriate, many patients receive chiropractic treatment during their first visit. You may also be given stretches, exercises, or other recommendations to help manage your condition at home.

A typical first visit lasts approximately 45 minutes.

Our Everett chiropractic office is located at 9212 Evergreen Way, Everett, WA 98204.
