Chiropractic

All parts of the human body require proper nerve energy and a flow of information in order to function properly.  If left uncorrected, a spinal misalignment (subluxation) can interrupt this internal communication system and cause pain, muscle and organ dysfunction and other imbalances.
Though some believe that chiropractic care is intended to relieve neck and back pain, it has more far-reaching benefits.  A wide variety of health problems stem from spinal imbalances and dysfunction of the spinal joint and nervous system.  Everyday living, stress, poor nutrition and  injuries can cause vertebrae to lose their proper position or motion.  This dysfunction can irritate your nervous system, causing pain and nerve interference throughout the body.
By restoring spinal balance, chiropractic care aids the body in healing itself.
ACTIVATOR METHODS:
Is a gentle, low-force approach to chiropractic care.  The technique has been used safely on patients of all ages since the late 1960’s, bringing relief to people with a variety of health concerns.
Incorporating the latest advances in orthopedic, neurological and chiropractic examinations, this unique system of administering spinal adjustments using research-based analysis and the Activator Adjusting Instrument can help restore spinal balance safely and comfortably.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
spinal detail
The technique utilizes specific protocols to detect spinal joint dysfunction, analyze leg length inequality, identify issues with body mechanics, and test neurological reflexes.  By analyzing results of these examinations, we can initiate the process of restoring spinal balance in the patient, gently and effectively.
The Activator Adjusting Instrument is the tool more doctors choose to deliver low-force chiropractic adjustments.  This unique hand-held instrument has been studied extensively with results published in hundreds of peer-reviewed research papers, and was designed to give patients a specific and gentle adjustment.
The Activator provides a controlled, fast thrust that is comfortable for the patient.  Adjustments with the Activator instrument are so quick and measured, the body’s muscles are less likely to resist, allowing for a more precise and accurate adjustment.
