Our Chiropractic Techniques

We tailor how we adjust you based on number of variables such as your age, body type, clinical factors etc… We always aim to be as gentle as possible. The approaches we use are based on our clinical judgment and years of experience.

The primary adjusting techniques we use include:

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

SOT

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

Thompson Technique

Thompson Technique uses a special table with several segments called drop-pieces.  The drop pieces allow a quick, small impulse when you are adjusted. For many people this makes it more comfortable.  Cavitation, or “popping”, of the joint typically does not occur. The majority of the adjustments are performed with the client lying face down.

Diversified

After identifying which vertebrae have lost their normal motion or position, a specific manual thrust is applied to free up “stuck” spinal joints. read more»
