Chiropractic adjustment is a procedure used to manipulate joints in the body and can also be called spinal or joint manipulation. Chiropractic adjustment can be done with special instruments or hands to achieve precise realignment of the spine and extremity to restore the nervous system’s flow and decrease tension in the muscle. Chiropractic adjustment helps to reduce pain and correct the body’s alignment.

We will gather your health history during your initial visit and perform a physical examination. To help determine your treatment needs, we may also recommend additional examinations or diagnostic tests, such as X-rays. This information will help us determine a treatment plan to best address your specific needs. You will be positioned on a padded chiropractic table to prepare for the chiropractic adjustment. We then use our hands or special instruments to apply a controlled, quick force to a joint. You may hear popping or cracking sounds as we manipulate your joints throughout the treatment session. After a treatment session, you may experience minor side effects like headaches, fatigue, or pain in the body parts that we treated. These effects should only last for a few days.

Chiropractic adjustment can help to alleviate pain and inflammation associated with several types of injuries and illnesses. We are trained and certified in safe and effective chiropractic adjustment and can discuss your specific needs to see if chiropractic adjustment could help you.
