I utilize many different techniques, each based on what is best for you.

Diversified: diversified technique is the most common chiropractic adjustment. It is the use of fast, gentle thrusts to the spine or other joints to normalize proper movement. You may hear small pops with this type of adjustment.

Flexion-Distraction: a form of therapy for lower back complaints to help loosen tight spinal muscles and open up the joints of the lower back. This technique may also relieve pressure on the nerves going to the back and legs and is often used to treat sciatic pain.

Activator: The activator technique helps to reset muscles, joints and tendons that have been affected by chronic stressors or trauma. It is gentle and can be used to assist in re-setting posture. It is also an effective treatment for children and the elderly.

Drop Technique: This is an adjustment that is assisted by the table.

Stretching: by using various stretching and soft tissue techniques we can speed recovery by loosening muscles and tissue around the affected area.

Electrical Muscle Stimulation: This is a therapy that is used with either ice or heat in addition to the adjustment. A low level electrical current is placed over the area of complaint and helps decrease muscle spasm and pain.
