Appointment Structures

Initial Exams

The initial exam takes 90 minutes. In this time we discuss your medical history, areas of pain, analyze movement strategies, address tissue restrictions, and perform chiropractic adjustments. 

Appointments

Follow-up appointments can be 30 or 60 minutes based on the patient's needs and the doctor’s recommendations. In the time selected, we will use a combination of manual therapy, movement, and spinal manipulation to help you get better.

Re-Examinations

Re-exams are for new problems or issues. We will also perform a re-examination if it’s been more than 3 months since your last visit.  

Patient Experience

  • “Dr. Houle is an exceptional practitioner. He explains and creates a relevant treatment plan based on your individual needs as a patient. I was having difficulty with my classic cross country ski stride. He was able to identify the issue, walk me through exercises that felt safe for my body, and strengthened the region. I would 10/10 recommend him for injury prevention and recovery, sport specific issues, and general health and wellness. Additionally, he is a lovely and personable human, it is obvious that he is passionate about his work.”

    -Sabrina D.

  • After years of being unable to run in my early 30s due to knee pain, Dr. Houle was able to identify that the problem was in my hip and provided multiple therapeutic treatments in-office and for me to continue at home. He helped me discover new movements to strengthen and protect old injuries. I was able to successfully run a 5K, pain free, for the first time in over 5 years. I continue to utilize the skills he taught me to keep my body healthy and functioning prior to prolong exercise or daily tasks such as sitting at a desk.

    -Della G.

  • “Dr. Houle is a class act that cares about others. He discovers and treats the underlying issues that are limiting his patients’ mobility and strength in daily and active life. I highly recommend his services, he brought me from chronic flare-ups in my feet and legs, to enjoying the outdoors and being active like I used to! Thank you, Dr. Houle!”
