How Chiropractic Care Can Help
Your first visit is about more than pain relief. It’s about understanding your body.
Whether you’re dealing with discomfort, stiffness, or simply know something doesn’t feel right, your first visit at Murray Family Chiropractic is a chance to get answers.

Starting chiropractic care shouldn’t feel overwhelming. Your new patient visit at Murray Chiropractic is designed to be clear, comfortable, and focused entirely on you. We take the time to listen, assess, understand what’s holding you back, and create a plan that supports real, lasting change, not just temporary relief.
Our team is here for you every step of the way with gentle care, clear communication, and a welcoming environment where you can feel at ease. From your very first appointment, you will know what to expect, why we are recommending care, and how we will track your progress. When you’re ready, booking your first visit is the next step toward feeling better and improving your life.

The New Patient Care Process
After being greeted by our friendly reception staff, you will be escorted by our Examination Chiropractic Assistant to your private examination room. She will brief you on the exam process and then Dr. Murray will begin your consultation and examination. Your examination will consist of a thorough health history review, computerized posture analysis, orthopedic tests, neurological tests, and possible digital x-ray imaging. Please allow up to 45 minutes for your first appointment.
Once the doctor has had a chance to sit down and study your examination results, he will have you back for your “Report of Findings,” during which you will receive a detailed description of your current health condition, as well as a thorough package of information specifically tailored for you. If after going over the findings you decide that you would like to begin care, you will receive your first chiropractic adjustment on this visit.
It is at this point that the doctor will give you a personalized care plan to address and improve your condition, and get you feeling better. Your care plan will outline what needs to be done, how long it will take, and how much it will cost. Aside from chiropractic adjustments, your care plan may also consist of home exercises, home traction stretching, dietary changes, and other lifestyle tips. We will answer all of your questions, so you will fully understand and be confident about your decision before starting your care.
