Diversified
The traditional hands-on adjustment. Direct, quick, and the one most people picture when they think of a chiropractor.
Best for straightforward mechanical restriction
Four ways to adjust a spine. He picks the one that fits you.
Some backs want the traditional adjustment. Some want an instrument that never twists anything at all. Twenty years of practice is knowing which is which.
The methods
Matched to the person on the table
There is no single correct adjustment. What is right for a college athlete is wrong for someone eight months pregnant.
Activator
A handheld instrument delivering a measured low-force impulse to one specific point. No twisting and no cracking.
Best for anyone nervous about being adjusted
Cranial sacral
Very light contact along the head, spine and pelvis, working with the body rather than forcing it.
Best for pregnancy, headaches, sensitivity
Applied kinesiology
Muscle testing used to assess the physical, chemical and emotional components of what is going on.
Best for pain with no obvious mechanical cause
The approach
Pain rarely starts where you feel it
The body works as a unit. Treating only the sore spot is why people end up back in the same chair three months later.
The whole body gets looked at
How you sit, stand, sleep and carry things. A shoulder problem is often a hip problem that has been compensating for a year.
Nutrition is part of it
Inflammation and recovery are not purely mechanical. Guidance comes as part of care, not as a supplement sale.
Acupuncture and massage on site
When soft tissue or a different modality is the better answer, it is available in the same building.
“He understands that the body works as a unit, so he treats the entire body, not just the points of injury or pain.” Diana R., patient
