WHAT TO EXPECT FROM A CHIROPRACTIC SESSION 

Chiropractors specially design care programs for every patient based on their examinations and health history.  These specific care programs include chiropractic adjustments.  There are hundreds of ways to use carefully directed and controlled pressure to restore spinal bones to a natural position and motion.  With improved spinal function, improved health and nervous system function can follow.

Chiropractic adjustments are specific, targeted and focused.  These adjustments are delivered in a variety of ways.  Sometimes, they are administered by a quick, accurate thrust of the doctor’s hands or a repeatable force to a fixated spinal joint, which is applied by an instrument.  Other times, a slow, constant pressure is used.  Several areas of the spine may be adjusted, or just one.  Some chiropractic doctors use special tables with moving sections to facilitate the adjustment process.

The key to chiropractic is to use the precise amount of energy, at the right spot, in the proper direction and at the right time to get spinal joints moving again.  Chiropractic is truly an art. Years of training turn doctor of chiropractic into experts at using just the right force in the right direction.
