The initial visit includes a full exam including but not limited to: Complete health history, orthopedic evaluation, neurological evaluation, and movement assessment (range of motion as well as muscle testing).
Spinal adjustments are a core chiropractic technique aimed at correcting misalignments in the vertebrae to restore proper spinal function, relieve nerve pressure, and reduce pain. Performed using precise, controlled force, these adjustments help improve mobility, posture, and overall nervous system function. They are commonly used to treat conditions such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, and sciatica, offering a non-invasive, drug-free approach to musculoskeletal health.
Extremity adjustments are specialized chiropractic techniques focused on restoring proper alignment and function to joints outside the spine, such as the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles. These adjustments help improve joint mobility, reduce pain, and enhance overall biomechanics, often benefiting athletes, active individuals, or those recovering from injuries. By addressing misalignments in the extremities, we can support better movement patterns and reduce strain on other parts of the body.
Flexion distraction therapy is a gentle, non-invasive chiropractic technique used to relieve spinal pain and improve mobility, particularly in the lower back and neck. Performed on a specialized table that moves in a rhythmic, controlled manner, this therapy helps decompress spinal discs, reduce pressure on nerves, and promote the natural healing of spinal tissues. It is especially effective for conditions like herniated discs, sciatica, and spinal stenosis, offering patients a safe alternative to surgery or more aggressive treatments.
Low-force instrument chiropractic adjusting using the ArthroStim is a gentle, precise technique designed to deliver rapid, targeted impulses to specific areas of the spine or joints. Unlike traditional manual adjustments, which involve twisting or cracking, the ArthroStim uses a handheld instrument that applies quick, controlled pulses at a rate of up to 12 per second. This helps stimulate nerve receptors, reduce muscle tension, and restore joint motion without causing discomfort. It’s ideal for patients who prefer a more comfortable alternative to manual adjustments, including children, seniors, and those with chronic pain or sensitivity.
An adjustment is a safe, natural, and noninvasive procedure utilized by trained and licensed chiropractors to improve, or restore, range of motion and health in joints. These adjustments can be made to both the spine and extremities.
The benefits to being adjusted are numerous. Correcting misalignments, or subluxations, reduces pain, Inflammation, muscle tightness or spasms, and increases joint range of motion as well as dexterity.
The extremity adjustment provides a tremendous benefit to stressed joints by immediately increasing range of motion as well as providing nutrients to the joint and surrounding tissues.
Absolutely! Numerous studies have shown that the chiropractic adjustment provides benefits such as:
