Services
Applied Kinesiology
Applied Kinesiology combines manual muscle testing with standard diagnostic methods to address musculoskeletal and neurological issues. Our chiropractors use this technique to identify imbalances and create targeted treatment plans for improved mobility and pain relief. This approach integrates structural, chemical, and mental aspects of health for comprehensive patient care.
Gonstead Adjustment
The Gonstead Technique focuses on precise spinal adjustments using detailed analysis of X-rays and palpation. Our doctors deliver specific, high-impact corrections to alleviate nerve interference and restore proper alignment. This method emphasizes biomechanics and ensures safe, effective adjustments tailored to individual anatomical needs.
Thompson Technique
Thompson Technique utilizes a specialized adjusting table with sections that drop slightly during adjustments. Our team addresses disc issues and spinal misalignments with reduced force, enhancing comfort and treatment efficiency. This method is particularly effective for low-back pain and disc-related conditions.
Extremity Adjusting
Extremity Adjusting targets misalignments in shoulders, elbows, knees, and other joints to restore mobility and function. Our chiropractors address sports injuries, repetitive strain, and postural imbalances through gentle manipulations. This service supports athletes and individuals seeking relief from joint-specific discomfort.
Manual Adjustments
Manual Adjustments involve hands-on spinal manipulation to correct alignment issues and improve nervous system function. Our doctors apply controlled pressure to specific vertebrae, relieving pain and enhancing overall wellness. This foundational technique remains central to our patient-centered approach for lasting results.
