Your First Visit to my Practice Dr. Azita Tabassian
You’ll be warmly welcomed and
made to feel at home. Help is on its way! On your first visit to
our office, our primary goal is to get the information we need
to determine if we can help you. With that in mind, we listen,
ask questions and do whatever exams might be necessary to locate
the source of your health problem.
Make Yourself at Home.
You’ll find plenty of convenient parking and a well-lit parking
lot. You’ll be greeted by name when you enter our office. If
you’ve already completed your admitting paperwork, great! If
not, after doing so we’ll likely show you a short 5-minute video
and then you’ll meet the doctor. |

We Explain Everything First.
The purpose of your consultation
with the doctor is to discuss your
health goals and see if chiropractic
is likely to help you. If it looks
promising, a thorough examination
will help identify the cause of your
problem. Apparently Ann Arbor area
chiropractic patients appreciate
that we explain everything in
advance!

Chiropractic is a natural healing
art and science
Chiropractic is a natural healing
art and science based on the fact
that the human body has
recuperative, self-healing
capabilities, and that there is a
correlation between skeletal
structure and optimum bodily
function. The interdependence of
structure and function, and the
relationship between the nervous
system--particularly the spinal
nerves--and the rest of the body is
the core element of chiropractic's
approach to healing and wellness.
When body structures such as cells and organs
are functioning normally, a state of health or normal
physiology is said to exist. However when the body's
physiology is abnormal, a disease state begins. Thus, we
begin to understand that abnormal physiology leads to
abnormal function, predisposing the body to disease
processes The spinal cord has 3 pairs of spinal nerves which
exit from the spinal column (backbone). The most delicate
and important organs of the nervous system (brain and spinal
cord) are encased in a hard bony covering composed of the
skull and spinal vertebrae. The spine has undergone
marvelous adaptation in providing protection, mobility, and
weight bearing support for our upright position. The spine,
in particular offers protection to the delicate spinal cord
and spinal nerves which exit from the spinal column.
Irritation to the nervous system can occur when spinal
biomechanics are com-promised and thus not functioning
properly.

 Most
patients consult our
office because they’re suffering from some type of ache or
pain. Visits are scheduled close together during this early
stage of care and there are three possible responses.
Some patients see fast results with their symptoms improving
quickly. A few patients actually seem to get a little
worse before they improve. And I’m happy to report
that most patients enjoy steady improvement, with each visit
building on the ones before and they reach ‘Decision Time.
Recovery process starts with suffering, and should at least
ends with healing. Most patients attempts to
discontinue treatment in the middle of process
"stabilizing". You’ll be feeling better,
but the supporting muscles and ligaments haven't fully
healed and |

A health profession concerned with the
diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders
of the musculoskeletal system, and the effects of these
disorders on the functions of the nervous system and general
health. There is an emphasis on manual treatments including
spinal adjustment and other joint and soft-tissue
manipulation (WFC Dictionary Definition, World Federation of
Chiropractic, 2001 ). A health care profession concerned
with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disorders of
the neuromusculo skeletal system and the effects of these
disorders on general health. There is an emphasis on manual
techniques, including joint adjustment and/or manipulation
with a particular focus on subluxations (The WHO definition,
World Health Organization, Guidelines on Chiropractic,
2005).Chiropractic is a healthcare discipline that
emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to
heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. The
practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between
structure (primarily the spine) and function (as coordinated
by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the
preservation and restoration of health. In addition, doctors
of chiropractic recognize the value and responsibility of
working in cooperation with other health care practitioners
when in the best interest of the patient (The ACC
definition, Association of Chiropractic Colleges, 1996). |

strengthened.
That’s something that happens after symptoms disappear.
You’ll have to decide whether to continue your visits to
achieve maximum healing and keep yourself in tip-top shape,
or…" Coast. And the only way to coast is to go downhill."
Without the strengthening and healing that happens post
stabilizing, you’ll be predisposed to a relapse. I
can’t predict when, but most patients tell me it happens at
the worst possible time. When this happens, I hope you
won’t blame chiropractic, if we didn’t have the opportunity
to fully heal supporting muscles and soft tissues. Many
people think that once they feel better, that they are
better. But people with undetected cancer, heart disease or
even the early stages of tooth decay may not have symptoms,
but they certainly aren’t healthy!" |
