Chiropractic Adjustment Techniques

 Hey again,

this is Doctor John,

with Wave Chiropractic. I get a lot of questions of what kind of technique do you do? How do you adjust the spine? And all that kind of good questions on that. So we have types of tables that are called drop tables. So the table actually does drop. So you’ll hear boom, boom, boom when we’re adjusting the patient.

That is an easier less forceful adjustment to the spine. So a lot of people like that. I use more of a hybrid type of technique where I do some drop table as well as some manual adjustments. You’ve probably heard that on Tik Tok and all that kind of good stuff, cracking your neck, cracking your bones and all that kind of stuff.

What we do is we do gentle specific adjustments to the areas of concern. And we release the tension and that’s that nitrogen gas being released. That’s what I usually say, the good gas, not the bad. But those are, that’s the popping sound or cracking sound that most people like or don’t like.

So that’s the type of technique that we do. So when a person comes in, my job is to figure out what is the, easiest, safest way to adjust any kind of bone in the body. I can adjust head to toe. But we tailor it to the specific patient. So not everybody gets the same thing. So I have patients that were a hundred years old.

Obviously, I can’t adjust him like I’m adjusting an athlete. So we come up with a game plan of figuring out what’s going to work best for that patient. So that’s, these are the type of techniques that like we use. Some people are really specific on if you do upper cervical, if you do full spine, if you do chiropractic biophysics, if you do Gonstead, all of those, in my opinion, They all work.

It’s just a matter of how the presentation is and how the patient responds to that adjustment. So any more information that you need just give us a call check us out at Wave Chiropractic.
