At Summit Chiropractic & Massage , we use an adjusting style commonly referred to as \u201cDiversified.\u201d First, an analysis of your spine is performed. This can initially involve a case history and X-ray pictures of your spine.<\/p>

Subsequent visits may include motion palpation, with the chiropractor feeling the spinal joints move as you turn and bend. Or, a leg check may be performed, to uncover an imbalance in the neck or lower spine.<\/p>

With the malposition of one or more spinal bones identified, a specific manual thrust is administered. The direction, speed, depth and angle that are used is the result of years of experience, practice and a thorough understanding of spinal mechanics.<\/p>

The energy delivered during the thrust may produce a slight \u201cpopping\u201d sound from the shifting of gas and fluids in the joint. This sound may be interesting, but is not a guide as to the value or effectiveness of the adjustment.<\/p>

While improving spinal biomechanics can reduce nervous system interferences, virtually all joints of the body can be adjusted to help restore proper range of motion.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Drop table technique <\/strong><\/p>

An adjustment method performed with the patient lying prone on a raised table. A portion of the table is then \u201cdropped\u201d down with a gentle thrust in order to produce the desired change in the joint or musculature.<\/p>

Activator method<\/strong><\/p>

The activator is a hand-held spring-loaded adjusting instrument that delivers a small rapid pulse in order to gently help restore normal functioning in the body.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Massage Therapy compliments the chiropractic care you receive in our office.<\/h4>

Muscles react to stress by shortening and tightening up. This can lead to loss of flexibility in joints, misalignments, trigger points, decreased circulation, poor posture and poor health.<\/p>

Therapeutic massage received regularly helps work out chronic muscular tension. Massage melts away tension, and if received regularly, keeps tension from building back up again. Not only will you feel better but you will be healthier from the inside out.<\/p>

Massage Supports Chiropractic<\/h4>

You can benefit by adding massage therapy to your chiropractic care program.<\/p>
