TERMS OF ACCEPTANCE

When a patient seeks chiropractic health care and we accept a patient for such carer it is essential forboth to be working towards the same objective.

Chiropractic has only one goal. It is important that each patient understand both the objective and themethod that will be able to attain it. This will prevent any confusion or disappointment.

Adjustment: An adjustment is the specific application of forces to facilitate the body's correction ofvertebral subluxation. Our chiropractic method of correction is-by specific adjustments of the spine.

-Health: A state of optimal physical, mental and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease orinfirmity.

vertebral Subluxation: A misalignment of one or more of the 24 vertebra in the spinal column whichcauses alterationof nerve function and interference to the transmission of menta! impulses! resulting in alessening of the body's innate ability to express its maximum health potential.

We do not offer to diagnose or treat any disease or condition other than vertebral subluxation. However,if during the course of a chiropractic spina! eveluation, we encounter non-chiropractic or unusual findingsr

we will advise you. If you desire advice, diagnosis or treatment for those findlnqs, we will recommendthat you seek the services of a health care provider who specializes in that area.

Regardless of what the disease is called, we do not offer to treat it. Nor do we offer advice regardingtreatment prescribed by others. OUR ONLY PRACITCEOBJECITVE is to eliminate a major interference tothe expression of the body's innate wisdom. Our only method is specific adjusting to correct vertebralsubluxations.

I, have read and fully understand the above statements.All questions regarding the doctors objectives pertaining to my care in this office have been answered tomy complete satisfaction. I therefore accept chiropractic care on this basis.
