The Foundation of Our Care
Chiropractic adjustments are the single-most impactful thing we can provide to our patients.
The adjustment is a very powerful tool that we use on the majority of our patients. The goal of the adjustment is simple. Restore proper motion to an area that has been compromised. When evaluating you for an adjustment, the doctor will palpate (push) on your spine and feel for any joint restriction or dysfunction. Joint dysfunction can occur from an injury, muscular imbalances, sitting with poor posture, among other causes.
When there is joint dysfunction in the spine, it means that the joint does not move the way it was designed to. You can picture it as being restricted or “stuck.” When we perform an adjustment or manipulation to the areas with poor motion, we are reintroducing the proper joint motion and mechanics. This allows the body to have proper biomechanics and will enable you to move better.
