Your Care Journey at Divergent

A Thorough Diagnostic Consultation

Your first visit begins with a detailed consultation performed by one of our diagnostic practitioners or medical professionals. This includes:

  • A complete history review
  • Understanding how long the issue has been present
  • Identifying aggravating movements
  • Functional testing
  • Orthopedic examination
  • Discussion about previous treatments and results
  • Reviewing any imaging (X-ray, MRI, ultrasound) if you have it

Your first visit is about accuracy, not rushing treatment.

We identify the real root cause before moving forward.

A Clear, Honest Explanation of Your Diagnosis

Once the assessment is complete, we will explain:

  • Exactly what is causing your pain
  • Why it hasn’t resolved yet
  • Whether there is degeneration, fibrosis, adhesions, or mechanical dysfunction
  • Whether this is chronic, acute, or compensatory
  • What the expected prognosis is

We communicate clearly, respectfully, and without medical jargon.

You will always understand what’s happening and why.

A Customized, Strategic Treatment Plan


No two patients receive the same plan. Your treatment strategy is designed based on:

  • Your diagnosis
  • How chronic the condition is
  • Your functional limitations
  • Your sensitivity levels
  • Your activity and work demands
  • Your insurance limits (when applicable)
  • Your goals

Every plan includes recommended frequency, duration, and expected response timeline. We tell you exactly what we’re doing, how we’re doing it, and why it will help.

Comprehensive

Multimodality Treatment Sessions

Unlike most clinics that treat with one technique at a time, Divergent uses multimodality sessions that combine several technologies and therapeutic applications.

A typical session may include:

Each treatment is one-on-one, hands-on, and tailored to your case.

We do not “stack” patients or bounce between rooms.

Pain

 Will the Treatment Hurt? (Honest Answer)

Some chronic conditions — especially those with:

  • fibrosis
  • adhesions
  • tendon thickening
  • chronic inflammation
  • scar tissue
  • long-standing mechanical dysfunction

… require a disruptive physiological stimulus. This means some parts of the treatment can feel intense.

But we always:

  • Work within your tolerance
  • Communicate throughout
  • Modify techniques when needed
  • Introduce laser or other alternatives if shockwave is not tolerated
  • Never force anything unsafe

Most patients describe it as productive discomfort, not pain.

 

How Many Treatments Will I Need?

This depends entirely on your diagnosis.

  • Some acute issues resolve quickly (1–3 sessions)
  • Chronic problems may require a structured plan (8–15+ sessions)
  • Complex, long-term dysfunction requires multimodality approaches

We always re-evaluate your progress regularly and adjust your plan as needed.

Consistent Communication

We pride ourselves on exceptional communication:

  • You’ll know what is happening every visit
  • We explain every technique
  • We tell you what to expect after treatment
  • We guide you through flare-ups
  • We follow up when needed
  • We educate you on activity modifications

You are never left guessing.

Well being

Supportive, Organized, Respectful Environment

Our clinic culture is built around:

  • Professionalism
  • Respect
  • Patience
  • Clear communication
  • Cleanliness and organization
  • No waiting weeks between appointments
  • No rushed visits

You will feel supported from your first call to your last session.

Heart

Realistic Expectations & Honest Prognosis

We don’t promise miracles.

We promise honest, evidence-based expectations.

That includes:

  • What we can help with
  • What we can’t help with
  • What is realistically achievable
  • How long improvement should take
  • How chronicity affects results

Patients appreciate our transparency and trust us for it.

Long-Term Planning & Prevention


Once your symptoms improve, we focus on:

  • Functional strengthening
  • Mobility work
  • Postural correction
  • Stabilization exercises
  • Lifestyle modification
  • Preventing re-injury

We want you to maintain your results long after your program ends.
