An “adjustment” is the primary treatment method of Chiropractors. This “adjustment” is the use of a specific force applied in a precise direction to a joint that is troublesome (perhaps it is fixated, locked-up or not moving in a normal manner). The purpose of the “adjustment” is to help restore a more normal position or motion, often removing pressure from the nerves, capsules, muscles and other soft tissue in the area and providing a quick relief of pain and discomfort.

And just as each patient is unique. Each treatment and each “adjustment” is unique as well. Your age, size and individual spine problems will determine which “adjustment” technique will best put you on the road to a pain-free back and neck.
