House Call Chiropractic Service San Ramon
In the old days, doctors would make house calls. They would go to the sick person’s home, examine the patient, and prescribe medicines. Today, it’s all about waiting for days to get an appointment; driving to the hospital or doctor’s office; waiting some more, and finally seeing the doctor. Then, the patient had to drive through traffic all the way home.
There are benefits to getting chiropractic treatment in your home. For one, you save money and time. Secondly, it’s convenient if you are in pain and have difficulty walking. And of course, you are in a familiar environment and are more likely to be under less stress, which helps in chiropractic.
The medical delivery model is changing in light of all the problems with healthcare cost and insurance coverages. Some medical doctors operate on a retainer basis, where a patient or family pays a fixed annual fee for access to the doctor. And, there are more doctors offering house call service. With a house call practice, overhead (office space) is decreased and the savings are passed to the patients.
For a house call chiropractic visit, I will bring a comfortable table. It would be set up in an open space, like the living room or family room. After a few questions to discuss the nature of the problem, I will do a brief spinal exam. After the problem is identified, and all is OK, the appropriate chiropractic adjustments are done. This will take 5-10 minutes. Then, we’ll determine together the need for follow-up care.
The visit will essentially be the same as though you were in my office, only better– it will be your home sweet home.
To request a house call visit, I can be reached at (925) 788-6253.
