- Chiropractic AdjustmentsUnder normal circumstances, chiropractic adjustments/manipulations are painless. In cases of recent trauma, such as whiplash, mild discomfort may be experienced due to inflammation. It is also common to feel a brief sensation in the extremities immediately following an adjustment due to the sudden decompression of the affected nerve root. Most people feel an immediate relief and increased mobility following a treatment.
- Spinal AdjustmentsChiropractic patients range in years from birth to old age. The spinal adjustment and treatment approaches are tailored to each individual patient. For example, a 300 pound truck driver’s treatment will differ form a treatment to an elderly person. Chiropractors are well trained to tailor their approach based on the individual.

- Manipulation TherapyAgain, chiropractic treatment may involve multiple visits to move you from pain relief, to rehabilitation and stabilization. Many times, you need more than an adjustment or spinal manipulation. We use many other techniques and therapies to get you well.
- Myofascial TherapyModalities like ultrasound and electrical stimulation are often employed. Muscle techniques using stretching, or myofascial release to help restore the normal length and elasticity to the muscles, ligaments and tendons. Rehabilitative exercises to improve coordination and strength. Diagnostic testing such x-ray or MRI may be ordered. Education in lifestyle changes and ergonomics. Sometimes a referral to an appropriate specialist is warranted.
