What to expect at your first visit to Rugby Chiropractic
Your Journey to Better Health Starts Here
We understand that seeking treatment for pain, tension, or reduced mobility can feel like a big step. That’s why we’ve created a calm, welcoming environment where you’ll feel at ease from the moment you arrive.
At Rugby Chiropractic, we take the time to understand you, your symptoms, your lifestyle, and your goals - so we create a personalised and effective treatment plan.
You’ll be greeted by our friendly reception team and made to feel at home. We’ll ask you to complete a short medical history form to help us understand your overall health and previous injuries or treatments.
Your chiropractor will invite you into a private treatment room, where we’ll discuss your symptoms in detail—what’s brought you to us, how long you’ve been experiencing discomfort, and how it’s affecting your day-to-day life.
We’ll carry out a thorough examination of your spine, nervous system, muscles and joints. This allows us to identify the root cause of your pain or restriction and check how your body is currently moving and adapting.
If chiropractic care is appropriate, your chiropractor will create a tailored plan designed to restore alignment, reduce pain, and support your body’s natural ability to heal.
Your plan may include:
You’ll have time to ask any questions—we want you to feel informed, confident and supported throughout the process.
At your second appointment, we’ll review how your body responded to the initial treatment. It’s not uncommon to experience mild soreness as your body begins to adjust, particularly if you’ve been living with poor spinal function for some time.
We’ll then continue with your next treatment, adjusting our approach based on your response and goals.
Each visit includes:
Our goal is to not only relieve pain but to help prevent its return through advice, support and long-term spinal health.
You are always in control of your care - we’ll guide you, but the decision of how often to continue is entirely yours.
We’ll provide helpful resources to support your recovery at home, including:
Should you have questions between appointments, we’re just a call or message away.
