Techniques Used

Pro-Adjuster The Pro-Adjuster determines the best adjustment mode for your specific condition, and then administers a controlled percussive force to the misalignment. The treatment is consistent, measurable and extremely gentle. There is no guesswork, and it is safe for individuals of all ages. Manual Manipulation A non-invasive diagnosis and hands-on therapy that integrates osteopathy, chiropractic therapy and physical therapy. Most often used to treat pain in the neck or back, although it also can relieve discomforts of the musculoskeletal system, which includes all of our joints and muscles, throughout the body. This therapy uses mobilization and manipulation techniques to help restore full movement to restricted joints, as well normal elasticity to muscles and other soft tissues. Drop Table The characteristic function of such tables is based on various portions or individual pieces of the table being able to drop a small distance during the adjusting procedure.  This requires that the pieces be able to be held in an “up” position and then being able to release and drop when the appropriate downward pressure is applied.  The amount of friction is adjustable so that when the chiropractor applies the gentle nudge or force, the combination of that and the person's weight becomes slightly more than what the friction-lock mechanism can support.  The result is that the piece drops and the spine moves. Activator This technique uses the latest advances in orthopedic, neurological and chiropractic examinations to seek joint dysfunction in the spinal column and extremities for improved patient care. The Activator Adjusting Instrument gives consistent low-force, high-speed chiropractic adjustments. Trigger Point/Advanced Soft Tissue Protocols Soft tissue protocols address muscle adhesions, tendon and ligament injury repair, and more, and is the choice for many professional athletes. Trigger point involves direct pressure to and stretching of the affected musculature. The amount of force used is dependent on patient tolerance. The technique affects the body by eliminating the accumulation of waste in the muscle. Additionally, trigger point therapy allows for restoration of normal muscle tone and flexibility.
