Chiropractic Adjustments
Adjustments are used to realign joints that are irritating nearby nerve tissue. This gentle realignment decreases pressure on and irritation of the nerves, relieving pain and increasing the range of motion. Chiropractic adjustments can be used on patients of all ages, from newborns to seniors.
To perform back adjustments, our chiropractors use their hands or specialized instruments to apply controlled force to a spinal joint. During adjustment, you may hear popping as the joint capsules release air from the spinal joints. The overall goal of the adjustment is to improve spinal motion and release any nerve impingement.
The benefits of chiropractic adjustments are immense:
Back and neck pain relief
Reduced blood pressure
Relief from headaches
Reduced colic in infants
Improved athletic performance
Reduced stress
Improved mood
Enhanced range of motion
