Our Techniques

We use a number of highly-effective adjusting approaches to help improve spinal biomechanics and reduce nervous system interference. The approach we use is based on our judgment and years of experience.

Chiropractic adjusting technique.

Chiropractic adjusting technique.

Think of an adjustment as "tuning" a piano, adjusting each string so it produces the perfect tone.

The primary adjusting techniques we use include:

Applied Kinesiology

Testing the strength of various muscles of your body help us find structural, chemical and mental problems revealed by a weak muscle...

Diversified

After identifying which spinal bones have lost their normal motion or position, a specific manual thrust is administered to free up “stuck” joints.

Thompson

Thompson Terminal Point technique is a system of analysis and a special table that reduces the amount of energy needed to adjust your spine.

Cox Flexion-Distraction

This non-force approach uses a special table so we can traction your spine, relieving pressure to compressed spinal discs and facet joints.

Non-Surgical Decompression Therapy

This is a relatively new method of offering relief to patients that suffer from herniated and degenerative disc disorders.

Gonstead

Named for its developer, we conduct a thorough evaluation using full spine X-rays and a heat-sensing instrument for accurate adjustments.

SOT

Sacro Occipital Technique helps normalize the relationship between the pelvis and the head, using gravity to make the necessary correction.

Activator Methods®

This is a system of spinal evaluation combined with a handheld adjusting instrument that delivers a consistent, low-force thrust.

Cold Laser

A new method of affecting cellular physic logy with low level laser light therapy. The basic principle is that the energy from cold laser stimulates natural cellular processes, enhancing biochemical reactions and circulation that rapidly reduce pain and associated processes on many levels.  Many tissue cells have absorption bands that are sensitive to cold laser light. 

Whole Food Nutrition

Providing whole food supplements in a concentrated form provides nutritional essentials to the body for natural healing. Whole food supplementation has successfully benefited thousands of people for 75 years in the United States and developed by Dr. Royal Lee, a Dentist. The process of providing the correct ingredients of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, co-enzymes and other factors found in food in its chemically free form enables the body to heal itself naturally.
