If you have ever been put in the situation of going to a gathering or event where
you did not know anyone, you know how uncomfortable you can become and
how quickly that can happen. To insure that you are not uneasy or apprehensive
on your initial visit to May Chiropractic, we would like to take you through the
procedures you can expect during your time with us.
The more you understand about us; who we are, what we do
and why we do it, the better results you will enjoy. It is as
simple as that. So take your time and look around our web site.
Get to know us. Feel free to contact us and make an
appointment so we can get to know you!
Chiropractic Building Blocks For Ongoing Health And Wellness!

YOUR FIRST VISIT - CONSULTATION
After a thorough consultation with the doctor, you will have a complete chiropractic examination. This will
include testing your reflexes, your ability to turn and bend as well as other standard orthopedic,
neurological, postural, and physical examinations. Your doctor will gain valuable information regarding
your condition so that he can better understand how chiropractic can help you. If necessary, diagnostic
imaging may be used. Your doctor may use X-rays or refer you for additional testing procedures.
Necessary views may be taken to visualize the location of any spinal problems, reveal any pathologies,
and make your chiropractic care more precise. Again, nothing will be done without your consent. And
with this, your first office visit is complete.
You should plan on spending about 30 minutes on your next
“follow up” visit to receive the doctors “Report Of Findings”. After
we have studied your health history and combine them with our
examination findings, the doctor will go over his findings, along
with reviewing any x-rays he may have taken so you can
understand the reports. The doctor will then make and discuss
recommendations designed to help you “get and keep” your
health and discuss future treatment possibilities and costs of
corrective care. You will find the fees of our office a great value.
After the investment of time needed on the first and second
visits, many patients become concerned that every visit will be
of equal length. In a word: NO!
If you have completed your New Patient Forms on line, great!
If not, we will supply you the forms necessary to fill out and help
you in anyway we can. Once your forms are completed, you will
meet either Dr. Shane May or Dr. James Allen.
Make Yourself Comfortable. When you first get to our facility
you will find an ample, well lighted parking area for you and your
vehicle. Once inside our office, you will be welcomed as a
member of our family by our cheerful staff. You will then be given
a short tour to better acquaint you with our facility. Many of our
patients have said that our facility is very tranquil and relaxed.
That is a very good thing, since we aspire to offer you
state-of-the-art chiropractic care in a stress free environment.
We Explain Everything First. When you meet with your doctor, he will go over your patient history with
you and ask you some specific questions regarding your current condition to determine whether or not
chiropractic care may be of benefit to you. If your doctor feels he can help you, he will let you know and
you can decide to proceed with the examination. If he feels he cannot, then you will be referred to
another doctor that will be able to help you the most. Nothing is done in our office without your consent.
Did you ever play with building blocks when you were younger?
If you did, you will understand the basics of ongoing care.
Chiropractic care involves a series of visits, with each visit
building on the previous ones. It is very important that our
relationship can “Go The Distance”! We have found that one of
the best ways to have a successful patient / practice
relationship is to make sure you understand everything in
advance so that there are No Surprises!
From when you first walk through our door, we want you to feel at home!

Before proper care can be rendered, your doctor will study the findings from your examinations. An
adjustment may or may not be performed on the first visit, depending on the level of the severity of your
problem. He may suggest the application of ice, heat or the use of some other procedure to help reduce
inflammation and make you more comfortable. He will then have our office administrator schedule your
next visit.
YOUR SECOND VISIT - REPORTING
If you and the doctor are in agreement, he will then begin
treatment. Most of our patients begin to see results from the
very first adjustment. Our special, gentle, yet effective treatment
is interactive with the patient, gentle enough for kids (they love
us), yet able to restore function and movement for the athlete
and senior. After this visit, typical visits shouldn't be more than
15 minutes.
During your Follow Up Visit, we will explain our findings and how we may be able to help you.

REGULAR VISITS - MAINTENANCE
Continuing health support for a happier, healthier and pain free life!
A typical office visit may require between 10 and 15 minutes.
But don’t think the brevity of a regular visit lessens its value!
With the groundwork laid, we can quickly size up the condition
of your spine and nervous system, adjust you so you can
continue on with your productive day.
Like a regular workout at the gym, each visit builds on the ones
before. Miss a visit and you can lose the momentum necessary
to make the needed changes. We recognize your time is
valuable. So we do everything possible to run on time and
minimize any impact on your busy life.
Avoid Relapses! Continue regular maintenance visits.
