Chiropractors, as Doctors of the nervous system, aim to correct interference in the nervous system to promote optimal functioning. Through manual adjustments and realignment of the spine and other joints, they address misalignments (subluxations) that can impinge on nerves, helping to alleviate pain and improve overall health and well-being.
By identifying the root cause of symptoms, chiropractors provide targeted care to address underlying issues and promote long-term wellness. Additionally, they offer guidance on nutrition, lifestyle modifications, ergonomics, exercise, stretches, and strengthening exercises to support overall improvements in quality of life.

A chiropractic adjustment is a manual procedure performed by a chiropractor to correct misalignments (subluxations) in the spine or other joints. It typically involves applying controlled force to the joint in order to restore proper alignment and mobility. By doing so, pressure on nerves can be alleviated, promoting better nerve function and reducing pain or discomfort. The adjustment aims to provide the correct line of drive, ensuring precise and effective realignment. Ultimately, chiropractic adjustments aim to optimize spinal health, promote overall wellness, and restore the body's natural ability to heal itself.

Children benefit from chiropractic care due to potential spinal stress during birth, including procedures like C-sections and vacuum extraction or forceps, as well as falls and minor injuries as they grow. Chiropractic adjustments correct misalignments, alleviate discomfort, and support nervous system function, leading to improved focus and overall function. Early intervention with chiropractic care prevents future issues, supporting optimal growth and development, contributing to better overall well-being.

From a chiropractic perspective, a pinched nerve refers to compression or irritation of a nerve along its pathway, often due to misalignments (subluxations) in the spine or other joints. These misalignments can create pressure on the nerves, leading to symptoms such as pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness in the affected area. Chiropractors focus on identifying and correcting these misalignments through manual adjustments to relieve pressure on the nerve and restore proper nerve function. By addressing the underlying cause of the pinched nerve, chiropractic care aims to alleviate symptoms and promote overall wellness.

Yes we do work with pregnant women! Chiropractic care is not only safe but also highly beneficial during pregnancy. A specialized technique called the Webster Technique is often used, which helps loosen ligaments and muscles while balancing muscle tone in the pelvis. This technique can create more space in the womb and aid in optimizing fetal positioning, particularly for breech babies, by encouraging them to move into the head-down position. Chiropractors have had significant success in adjusting pregnant women, particularly with breech babies, leading to positive outcomes and improved pregnancy experiences.

Yes, chiropractic adjustments are safe when performed by a trained and licensed chiropractor. Chiropractors undergo extensive education and training to ensure they have the knowledge and skills to safely perform adjustments.
It's important for individuals to discuss their medical history and any concerns with their chiropractor to ensure that adjustments are appropriate and safe for their specific situation.
-
Yes, you can often receive chiropractic adjustments after back or neck surgery, but it's crucial to proceed with caution and have a thorough assessment first. Prior imaging, such as X-rays or MRIs, helps ensure adjustments are safe and appropriate, especially around areas with surgical hardware like rods or screws. Chiropractors may adjust around these areas or use specialized instruments.
-
Yes, we use a tehnique called Webster’s technique.
Webster's technique is a chiropractic method designed to help reposition breech babies in the womb by addressing any misalignments or tension in the pelvis and surrounding muscles and ligaments. It is based on the idea that certain pelvic misalignments can restrict the space available for the baby to move into the head-down position necessary for a vaginal birth.
During a Webster's technique session, the chiropractor will typically start by evaluating the pelvic alignment and assessing for any imbalances or restrictions in movement. They will then use gentle adjustments, often focusing on the sacrum and sacroiliac joints, to correct any misalignments and improve pelvic function.
By realigning the pelvis and reducing tension in the surrounding muscles and ligaments, Webster's technique aims to create more space in the pelvic area, allowing the baby to move into the optimal head-down position for birth. It is believed that this improved pelvic alignment can help facilitate the baby's natural movements and encourage them to rotate into the correct position.

In our chiropractic practice, we primarily utilize the diversified technique combined with drop techniques. The diversified technique is a hands-on approach that involves precise manual adjustments to correct misalignments in the spine and other joints. By applying controlled force, we can restore proper alignment and function to the affected areas.
In addition to the diversified technique, we incorporate drop techniques, which involve specialized chiropractic tables equipped with sections that can be raised and then dropped slightly when pressure is applied. This gentle dropping motion helps facilitate the adjustment by allowing for a more controlled and comfortable experience for the patient while still achieving effective results.
For certain patients, such as babies and older individuals with weakened bones, we may also utilize the activator method. The activator is a handheld instrument that delivers a controlled, low-force impulse to specific points along the spine. This technique is particularly suitable for patients who may be more sensitive to manual adjustments or who require a more gentle approach due to their age or condition.
By combining these chiropractic techniques, we can tailor our approach to meet the unique needs of each patient, providing safe and effective care to help restore proper alignment, alleviate discomfort, and improve overall health and well-being.

Absolutely! Even with conditions like osteopenia or osteoporosis, chiropractic care can still be safe and beneficial. We just need to adjust our approach to accommodate the patient's specific needs and conditions.
For individuals with osteopenia or osteoporosis, we prioritize gentler techniques and adjustments. This might involve using lighter pressure during manual adjustments or opting for tools like the activator, which delivers controlled, low-force impulses to the spine and joints. These methods allow us to provide effective adjustments while minimizing the risk of injury or discomfort, particularly in areas where bones may be more fragile.
By adjusting our techniques to suit the individual's needs, we can still address misalignments, improve joint function, and alleviate discomfort, all while ensuring safety and comfort throughout the process. Chiropractic care can play a valuable role in managing the symptoms associated with osteopenia or osteoporosis, promoting better mobility, and enhancing overall quality of life.
