Comprehensive Assessment: The Foundation of The Gonstead Method in Washington, DC

1. Patient History: Every journey to wellness begins with a thorough understanding of the patient’s medical history. This step is crucial in identifying the causes of their issue and crafting a tailored treatment plan to correct it.

2. Instrumentation: A bilateral heat reading instrument marks the beginning of our physical assessment. This advanced tool detects uneven heat distribution along the spine, a standard indicator of inflammation and nerve pressure. Its gentle, non-invasive application is akin to having two fingers gliding down the spine, providing vital information about your spinal health.

3. Static Palpation: A tactile examination of your spine in a stationary position. This process helps us identify any signs of swelling, tenderness, or abnormal texture in the muscles and tissues, further informing our understanding of your spinal condition.

4. Motion Palpation: Our assessment continues with motion palpation, where we evaluate the movement of your spine. This step is essential in determining how each segment of your spine moves and identifies areas that may be restricted or misaligned.

5. Visualization: With decades of experience, our visual assessment allows us to observe subtle changes in your posture and movement patterns. This step is crucial in corroborating our findings from the previous assessments.

6. X-Ray Analysis: We employ X-ray analysis to visualize the entire structure of your spine, assessing for any posture issues, joint and disc integrity, vertebral misalignments, and fractures. These full-spine radiographs are taken in a standing, weight-bearing position to fully substantiate the examination findings and is invaluable in our diagnostic process, guiding our targeted treatment approach.
