What to Expect in Your First Chiropractic Appointment
If you’re searching for a chiropractor in Keilor or surrounding suburbs like Essendon, Airport West, Avondale Heights, Sunshine, or Moonee Ponds, you might be wondering what happens during your first visit. At The Sports Recovery Hub, we provide clear, evidence-based chiropractic care in a professional and supportive environment.
Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing pain, or wanting to improve performance, here’s what you can expect at your first chiropractic appointment in Keilor or nearby areas.
Your First Visit Starts With a Conversation
Your first chiropractic appointment begins with a detailed consultation, not immediate treatment.
We’ll discuss:
Your current pain, discomfort, or injury
How long your symptoms have been present
Work posture, training load, and lifestyle factors
Previous injuries or medical history
Your goals: pain relief, recovery, or performance
This ensures your Keilor chiropractor fully understands your body before recommending care.
Chiropractic Assessment at Our Keilor Clinic
Your chiropractor will then perform a thorough assessment, which may include:
Postural evaluation
Joint mobility and range of motion testing
Strength and stability screening
Neurological and orthopaedic tests
Functional movement analysis for sport or daily life
This helps identify the root cause of your pain, not just where it hurts.
Clear Explanation Before Treatment
Before any treatment begins, we explain:
What’s contributing to your symptoms
Whether chiropractic care is appropriate
Treatment options available
What recovery may look like
If imaging, referral, or other care is required, we’ll guide you accordingly.
Individualised Chiropractic Treatment
If suitable, treatment may start in your first session, including:
Chiropractic adjustments (when appropriate)
Joint mobilisation
Soft tissue therapy
Dry needling
Mobility and movement-based treatment
Treatment is always tailored to your comfort level and goals — whether you live in Keilor, Essendon, Airport West, Avondale Heights, Sunshine, or Moonee Ponds.
Advice, Exercises, and Next Steps

Simple exercises or mobility drills
Training and activity guidance
