Spinal adjustments 

Spinal adjustments are a procedure through which spinal nerve stress is reduced and ultimately eliminated. An adjustment is a re-positioning of misaligned bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments in order to reduce the stressful irritation to the nearby nerves, thereby restoring the nervous system to optimal functioning.  

Spinal adjustments eliminate the cause of disease

While most other forms of health care work by treating the symptoms that develop when the body has lost its ability to healthfully coordinate and control function, chiropractic addresses the spinal nerve stress, that  is often the cause of these symptoms, thereby removing the roadblocks to the body's ability to heal and regenerate itself.  Unlike medicine, natural and traditional - which seeks to remove disease through the use of external agents, chiropractic adjustments remove blockage to normal neurological coordination and control of body function, thereby allowing the body to heal and regenerate itself from the inside - out. 

The value of non-force adjustments

Today many doctors of chiropractic have turned from the traditional forms of forceful spinal manipulations used by chiropractic in its early days (the familiar "cracking" of the neck and back) to non-force or low force methods to adjust the spine. The appeal of non-force techniques is their gentle approach (no "twisting" or "cracking") and long lasting results. It is safe and effective for people of any age who are suffering from any condition. 

Non-force chiropractic adjustments are generally done with a gentle finger pressure to areas of the spine that are misaligned or with an adjusting instrument.  Due to its gentleness, the body relaxes and co-operates with the adjustment, rather than creating tension and resistance. The end result is that this efficient approach helps patients hold their adjustments longer, so they can completely recover from chronic pain and dis-ease. Over the years, non-force practitioners have earned the reputation of being able to correct difficult and complex chiropractic cases in a reasonable number of treatments.

Stress Testing to Locate Spinal Nerve Stress 

One of most effective methods of diagnosing spinal nerve stress is what we call "stress  testing". Through this gentle, non-invasive, and painless procedure the doctor is able to evaluate the effects of various stresses on the spine and related structures - the muscles, ligaments, and intervertebral discs - and measure the body's reaction to these stresses. Through stress testing the doctor is able to determine the specific nature of the the stress, how the body adapts to stress, the nature of the resulting structural tension, and the exact position of structural misalignment.  

With Stress Testing X-Rays are not mandatory - Stress testing allows doctors to use x-rays only when necessary to determine concurrent pathology, reducing your exposure to harmful radiation by keeping x-rays to a minimum.
