| Chiropractic Care |
Your initial treatment is intended to decrease inflammation, reduce spasms and alleviate any pain. The number of treatments necessary to accomplish this will depend on your age, underlying spinal condition, the length of time you have had your condition and other lifestyle choices.
One of the tools used to relieve pain is the chiropractic adjustment. We offer both manual and activator adjustments. We also offer many different therapies to reduce and eliminate pain. Click on a therapy below to learn more:

Traditional Adjustment
The adjustment made by the chiropractor consists of a high velocity, short lever arm thrust applied to a vertebra, which is often accompanied by an audible release of gas (joint cavitation). The audible sound is caused by the release of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide, which releases joint pressure (cavitation) (23). The sensation is usually relieving. |

Activator Adjustments
This technique has grown to be the most widely-used "low force" chiropractic technique in the world.
The Activator Technique incorporates the latest advances in orthopedic, neurological, and chiropractic examinations along with a unique system of administering spinal adjustments. Using the Activator analysis and the Activator instrument, your chiropractor can help restore spinal balance, safely and comfortably. |

Posture Analysis
The posture analysis machine allows us to check your pelvic, shoulder, and head levels, as well as your body lean. It also provides a visual comparison to normal and indicates any deviations from normal. We may use it before and after treatment. |
