You will be taken back to a private exam room and asked to fill out your forms. Please have your insurance card and driver's license, if applicable. Once you have finished the initial forms the doctor will enter and review them with you, perform a initial consultation and take a history, focusing on how your problem has impacted your life.

A thorough exam is performed consisting of specific tests to isolate your problem both bio-mechanically and neurologically. The doctor will give you an idea of what is being done and explain what your body is telling him. Depending upon your condition, x-rays will be performed in order to specifically diagnose the problem.

All communication by the staff and the doctor is done as if you are a real person, an individual and valued in our office! This entire process takes 45 to 60 minutes.

Dr. Upchurch Asks some important questions of interest to Royal Oak residents - Chiropractor Royal Oak Dr. Upchurch Asks...

What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Royal Oak parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.
Are chiropractors just concerned with the spine?
Our interest in the spine is because it covers the major communications conduit between your brain and your body. As a Royal Oak chiropractor my job is to locate areas (usually along the spine) that interfere with proper nerve communications to and from your brain. Chiropractic adjustments help restore nervous system integrity. In this way, chiropractic care can affect the function of your entire body.
