Welcome
We look forward to your first visit with us. In order to provide a comprehensive holistic
approach and address the root cause of your condition, please take a few minutes to complete
a very detailed and comprehensive questionnaire. The quality of information you provide will
facilitate in your evaluation and assist us in providing you the best customized personal
program.
Appointment Policy
Welcome to Family Chiropractic & Natural Healing Center. I am delighted to have you as a
new patient and look forward to providing you with the highest quality care. In order to
optimize our relationship, please take a minute to carefully read the appointment policy below.
My time and expertise is what you essentially pay for. Occasionally there is a problem with
patients who are not used to keeping on schedule themselves. Patients who are late may not be
seen that day. If you expect to be more than 15 minutes late, please call to confirm availability.
A 24 hour notice for cancelled or rescheduled appointments (Sunday excluded) is required or
your standard treatment fee may be assessed. This allows me time to schedule another patient
and the time is not lost. I have found that most patients respect my time as much as I respect
theirs.
Financial Policy
This office collects fees for services at the time of service. Cash, Checks, or Credit Cards
(Visa, M/C, & AMEX) are all accepted. There is a $25.00 returned check fee for insufficient
funds.
Patients who qualify for insurance billing will pay their deductible, co-pay, and/or co-
insurance. All insurance information must be verified for their eligibility and benefits. Only
the primary insurance will be billed.
Any questions I have concerning my appointments and financial policy have been answered. I have read this statement and fully understand it.

INFORMED CONSENT Please read this entire document prior to signing it. It is important that you understand the information contained in this document. Please ask questions before you sign if there is anything that is unclear. The nature of the chiropractic adjustment
The primary treatment I use as a Doctor of Chiropractic is spinal manipulative therapy. I will use that procedure to treat you. I may use my hand or a mechanical instrument upon your body in such a way as to move your joints. That may cause an audible “pop” or “click,” much as you have experienced when you “crack” your knuckles. You may feel a sense of movement.
Analysis / Examination / Treatment
As a part of the analysis, examination, and treatment, you are consenting to the following procedures:
Spinal manipulative therapy, various manual hands on techniques, neuro-motor re-patterning, stress release techniques, range of motion testing, muscle strength testing, ultrasound, radiographic studies, palpation, orthopedic testing, postural analysis, hot/cold therapy, vital signs, basic neurological testing.
The material risks inherent in chiropractic adjustment
As with any healthcare procedure, there are certain complications which may arise during chiropractic manipulation and therapy. These complications and their probabilities include but are not limited to: facture, disc injuries, dislocations, muscle strain, cervical muscle pain, rib/vertebra strains and separations, and burns. These are rare occurrences. Some types of manipulation of the neck have been associated with injuries to the arteries in the neck leading to or contributing to serious complications including stroke. The scientific literature puts this risk at 1 in 1 million to 5 million which is extremely rare. Some patients will feel stiffness and soreness following the first few days of treatment. I will make every reasonable effort during the examination to identify any reason not to undergo this type of care; however, if you have a condition that would otherwise not come to my attention, it is your responsibility to inform me.
The availability and nature of other treatment options Other treatment options for your condition may include:
Self-administered, over-the-counter analgesics and rest
Medical care and prescription drugs such as anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxants and pain-killers
Hospitalization
Surgery If you choose to use one of the above noted “other treatment” options, you should be aware that there are risks and benefits of those options and you may wish to discuss these with your primary medical physician.
The risks and danger attendant to remaining untreated Remaining untreated may allow the formation of adhesions and reduce mobility which may set up a pain reaction further reducing mobility. Over time this process may complicate treatment making it more difficult and less effective the longer it is postponed.
I have read ( ) or have had read to me ( ) the above explanation of the chiropractic adjustment and related treatment. I have discussed it with Dr. Lind and have had my questions answered to my satisfaction. By signing below I state that I have weighed the risks involved in undergoing treatment and have decided that it is in my best interest to undergo the treatment recommended. Having been informed of the risks, I hereby give my consent to that treatment. Dated: _________________________ Dated: _____________________________
