Our Chiropractors follow evidence-based medical literature to ensure your safety and get you relief in the quickest amount of time possible. Chiropractic adjustments are often used in combination with therapeutic conditioning exercises and physical modalities like ultrasound and myofascial release to address both mechanical joint pain and associated muscle pain contributing to your symptoms.
What is a spinal adjustment?
A spinal adjustment is a gentle treatment that uses a manual force from the chiropractor’s hand to deliver a stretching motion to the spinal joints. This often results in a “popping” sound like when your knuckles are cracked. The adjustment simply stretches the spinal joint to restore proper joint mobility. Painful spinal joints need to be stretched just like tight muscles need to be stretched. Chiropractors are able to facilitate this treatment accurately and precisely in order to relieve pain and restore movement.

Results After a Back Adjustment Session
Many people feel almost immediate relief after spinal adjustment. For others, particularly those with more severe conditions, it may take some time before they begin to experience the benefits of chiropractic treatment.
With the right treatment plan and some time, most patients will experience improved mobility, more energy, and major pain relief. Some people even report better posture and longer endurance.
Additionally, some patients seek chiropractic care for micro-injuries to prevent them from growing into more serious ailments later on.
Spinal Manipulation & Back Adjustments
The most well-known chiropractic treatment for pain is a spinal adjustment, also known as spinal manipulative therapy. This is where your chiropractor applies a controlled force to your joints, often causing your back to make a popping sound similar to cracking your knuckles. The goal is to align your spine, increase your range of motion, and provide fast pain relief.
Patients experiencing neck pain, lower back pain and headaches request this treatment most often. However, anyone experiencing discomfort is welcome to experience the instant relief that frequently follows such a chiropractic adjustment. While some patients report a little soreness or aching post-alignment, this discomfort usually goes away within one or two days.
To further improve your joint function, our chiropractors usually recommend scheduling time to work to continue a simple home exercise regimen to reinforce the benefits of the spinal adjustments. These additional treatments can help improve your strength, balance, gross motor skills and endurance.
