After your forms are all done, you’ll move on to a visit with Dr. Llaird Likens. You’ll go over your health history as well as any current problems, pain points and symptoms. Once Dr. Likens has a full picture about you and your reasons for seeking treatment, he will explain some potential treatment options.

Dr. Likens may also take X-rays, depending on your condition and examination. X-rays give more details and help Dr. Likens to develop an effective treatment plan with as much information as possible. X-rays also alert him to any serious spinal conditions. In addition, Dr. Likens can use X-rays to explain why you’re feeling the way you do. Since so many of us are visual learners, this can be very helpful for patients as they can start to see their misalignments and degeneration themselves.

Now comes the fun part! At the end of your appointment, you can choose to receive your first treatment and finally feel relief! Depending on your condition, this may include a variety of treatments including spinal adjustments, therapy, stretches and trigger point release. Your comfort is a top concern for Dr. Llaird Likens, so you can feel free to express any concerns during treatment and Dr. Likens can adjust accordingly.
