Welcome to the practice.  You will find information here about what to expect in sessions with Dr. Shults.

A first visit is usually 45 - 60 minutes long, with follow-up visits a bit shorter.  All sessions begin with a conversation.  You will have the chance to give Dr. Shults a full history and explanation of your symptoms and goals or to check in on your progress.

 Each visit will address your condition through the wholistic lens of physical, chemical, and mental/emotional influences. The goal is always to find and fully resolve the roots of your symptoms, or to reach the highest level of functioning possible for you. 

Specific techniques will be drawn from a broad toolkit and may include hands-on therapeutic work targeting joints, muscles, or connective tissues.  Movement retraining and postural exercises may be taught so that you can learn to resolve imbalances that lead to your injury or problem and prevent recurrences.  There may be hands-on work with acupuncture points (without needles), discussion of exercise or dietary routines, the recommendation of supplements or techniques to balance stress and troubled emotion in the body. 

While you will find each visit with Dr. Shults to be unique, one session is generally enough to get a sense of her work and whether it is a good fit for you.
