Why do we check your muscles, reflexes, and sensations at your first visit?
Because we are not just looking at where it hurts.
Your reflexes help us see how your nervous system is functioning. Muscle tone and strength shows where your body has been compensating. Sensation testing tells us how well everything is communicating in your body.
When we put all of that together with your history and functional assessment, we get a much better picture of what’s actually going on. NOT just the pain, but the root of it.
