About ChiropracticChiropractors focus on the overall health of the patient by treating disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system. Chiropractors use a drug-free, hands on approach to examine, diagnose and treat patients.
Chiropractors use adjustments to restore movement in joints in the spine or extremities that are not functioning properly. Chiropractors focus on providing adjustments that restore joint mobility, improve range of motion, reduce nerve irritability, muscle spasm and pain in order to improve the overall function of the patient.

Chiropractic Manipulation
The chiropractic adjustment is a quick, painless thrust applied to a misaligned joint in the spine or extremity. The adjustment may create an audible release of gas inside the joint that sounds like a “crack”. The chiropractic adjustment usually provides immediate relief and increased range of motion.

Soft Tissue Manipulation
Soft tissue dysfunction that causes pain is targeted manually. During the healing phase of an injury manual soft tissue manipulation can be used to break up adhesions and restore function.
Thermal & Cryotherapy
Heat can be used on the area of pain to increase blood flow and clear out waste products which will help reduce the patient’s pain. Ice decreases the blood flow to the area to decrease inflammation and muscle spasm which will help to reduce the pain.
Electrotherapy
Electrotherapy uses an electrical current to stimulate circulation, help clear out waste, which will help decrease pain.
