New patients are warmly welcomed to our Calgary chiropractic office.

You'll be warmly welcomed and made to feel at home. After making an appointment for your first visit, we ask that you visit our website to complete and submit our Online Paperwork. Alternatively, we are able to email or fax the paperwork to you so that you may save yourself time on the first visit and have it filled out ahead of time.

You will find our central location easily accessible from all areas of the city, with plenty of free parking in our parking lot on the east side of our building. Please feel free to park in any of the stalls marked "Embody" or in any unmarked stalls in the centre of our parking lot. You can expect to spend approximately 60 minutes at your first visit.

Make Yourself at Home

Most of our practice members comment on how comfortable and welcomed they feel by the clinic atmosphere and team members.

We Explain Everything First

The purpose of the first visit is to complete a thorough evaluation in order to determine if you will be a candidate for care in our office, and for you to decide if we will be able to support you and your health goals. Typically there is no adjustment on the first visit. The process begins by looking at your detailed health history including any past traumas, motor vehicle accidents, surgeries, other treatment programs and other diagnostic tests including previous x-rays.

Your chief complaints and other health indicators must all be evaluated and assessed. We utilize surface electromyography (SEMG) and Thermography to give us further clinical information, in addition to possible x-rays

We also have the service of taking x-rays in our office. This saves you the time of having to make another appointment at an off-site facility and allows us to take the views specific to Chiropractic analysis. A hands-on chiropractic examination, including postural analysis, will help us determine the function of your spine.

Our practice members appreciate that we explain everything in advance. On your Second Visit, we will discuss your results.

Dr. Richard Asks some important questions of interest to Downtown Calgary residents - Chiropractor Downtown Calgary Dr. Richard Asks...

Is a muscle spasm a cause or an effect?
With the knee-jerk use of muscle relaxers, you'd think it was a cause. But it's an effect. Chiropractors know that bones don't move unless muscles move them. And muscles don't contract unless commanded by the nervous system. That's why your nervous system is the focus of our Downtown Calgary chiropractic practice.
What happens if you stop chiropractic care when you feel better?
Many Downtown Calgary folks recognize that this predisposes you to a relapse. Chiropractors know that muscles and ligaments supporting the spine don't fully heal until after symptoms subside.
