What Sets Compass Family Chiropractic Apart?
Day One: Understanding Your Foundation
Your journey to resilience and vitality begins with a deeper look into how your body is functioning. Your first visit is designed to reveal unconscious patterns of stress, imbalance, and interference within your nervous system.
We start with two advanced nervous system scans: an HRV (Heart Rate Variability) scan to assess your body’s adaptability and overall regulation, and a temperature scan along the spine to identify areas of inflammation and nervous system stress. Next, in a comprehensive health intake, Dr. Roy will guide you through a conversation about your health history, concerns, and goals—helping you connect the dots between past experiences and current challenges. Finally, we take a set of X-rays, providing further insight into the structure and alignment of your spine.
A Space for Families to Thrive
At Compass Family Chiropractic, we believe in supporting the whole family on their journey to health. Our kid-friendly play area—featuring toys, a chalkboard, and a coloring station—creates an inviting space where children can engage and explore while parents focus on their care. Because when families feel at ease, they’re empowered to embrace their path to wellness together.
