Patient Exercises

Daily Floor Stretches

1.- Relaxing Floor Stretch: 10-15 minutes daily

Lie on the floor with a hand towel rolled up under the neck and low back if indicated; the size of your
forearm. Look up at the ceiling (if you turn your neck your spine will also turn). Take a deep breath and
raise arms up above head and point toes, exhale and bring arms down and flex toes towards head. Relax
for a minute and then repeat every minute for 10-15 minutes. The purpose of this stretch is to move
cerebral spinal fluid within the spine and nourish the brain and central nervous system. This exercise is
also very important to remind your body the new positioning the Doctor has put your spine in. Doing this
daily will reinforce your adjustments and straighten your curves.

Welcome to the Chiropractic Lifestyle!

What is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is foundational for a clear brain-body connection! We live our life through our nervous system. The practice of chiropractic focuses on the relationship between the structure (primary to the spine) and the function (as coordinated by the nervous system) and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health. Chiropractic is a healthcare discipline which emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery.

What is microbiome testing?

The intestinal microbiome of the gut plays a role in common health conditions.

Chiropractic – What to Expect

You’ll arrive at one of our bay area locations, and you will be greeted by our friendly receptionist! After your paperwork is completed, you will get started on an examination with Dr. Chan including discussing your health history and concerns. In our San Jose location, if you X-rays are required, you will be asked to visit a nearby radiology facility. In our Pleasanton location X-rays are taken in the office. Your first visit will include a consultation, examination, chiropractic treatment with additional adjunctive therapies based on medical need to help your healing process and will take approximately 45 minutes. After your treatment you will then schedule a follow up appointment to see your response to care.
