We are very thorough here at Spriggs Chiropractic. Ahead of your initial consultation, you will be asked to complete your new patient intake form, this is done online via a dedicated link. In addition we may ask you to complete health status questionnaires, to help give your chiropractor an accurate understanding of your health and your complaint. Your consultation will last approximately 60-90minutes depending on the complexity of your case and will include a full history of your complaint, full physical and neurological examination, postural analysis and x-rays will be taken if required.
Analysis of your case and x-rays takes time, so to give you the highest standard of care, your Report of Findings appointment will be booked within a day or two of your initial consultation. At your Report of Findings, your case and x-rays will be discussed through with you and recommended care options presented. Your treatment will commence at this appointment once care options have been given.

Health Insurance
If you are looking to use private health insurance towards care, you must first speak to your insurer to establish what your policy covers. We are currently providers registered with Aviva, AXA, Vitality and WPA. For anyone with a ‘cash plan’ with a different provider, you may still be able to receive your at Spriggs Chiropractic and seek reimbursement from your insurer, however you should speak to them first.
The typical process for using health insurance is as follows:
- You speak to your insurer to check what is/is not covered by your policy and obtain authorisation. You may need to have a GP referral depending on your insurer / policy, whilst some allow for self referral.
- Details to clarify with your insurer are: your authorisation / claim number, number of authorised sessions and details of claim excess.
- Book your consultation with us & complete our dedicated ‘Private Health Insurance Details form’ that you will be sent.
- Following your appointment(s), we invoice your insurer as each session, receiving a remittance, typically within 30days.
- If on receiving the remittance from your insurer, an invoice has not been fully paid, we will inform you of the balance owing to us. Your insurer will also notify you of any shortfall.
Please note: When using private health insurance, you must agree that any monies owed to Spriggs Chiropractic for services provided that your health insurance does not cover, or is part of your excess, or if your policy expires and you do not renew it, you will settle any outstanding amount(s) in full on invoice.
Other services are also available including;
For anyone who may be unsure if Chiropractic is the right thing for you, we offer a free of charge mini consultation. These appointments are 10 minutes in length and give you an opportunity to discuss your presenting complaint with a Doctor of Chiropractic. We will then inform you if we may be able to help with your complaint and a full consultation can be made following this appointment.
*If clinically required – if you have had imaging previously e.g. x-rays or MRI please let us know.
(NB there will be no physical examination or treatment at a mini consultation)
