Chiropractic Manipulation
Chiropractic adjustment – also known as chiropractic manipulation, manual manipulation, or spinal manipulation – is a widely used treatment to relieve back pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall spinal health.
What a Chiropractic Adjustment Typically Involves:
- A controlled, high-velocity thrust applied to a specific spinal joint
- A natural, audible “pop” or release of gas (oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide) from the joint, which relieves pressure (known as cavitation)
How It Works
During a chiropractic adjustment, trained specialists (Chiropractors/Physiotherapists/Osteopaths) use their hands or specialized instruments to deliver precise force to a spinal joint. The goal is to:
- Restore normal spinal motion
- Reduce pain and stiffness
- Improve the body’s physical function and alignment
Is Chiropractic Adjustment Right for You?
While many patients experience significant relief and improved mobility, results can vary depending on the individual and their condition. If your symptoms don’t improve after a few weeks of treatment, our specialists will guide you toward alternative or complementary therapies that may better suit your needs.
