Spinal Adjustments

Chiropractic spinal adjustment is a therapeutic technique licensed chiropractors use to treat musculoskeletal conditions, particularly those affecting the spine. This hands-on procedure involves applying controlled force to specific joints of the spine that have become restricted in their movement.

The primary goals of spinal adjustment are to:

  1. Restore joint mobility
  2. Alleviate pain and muscle tightness
  3. Remove pressure on the spinal nerves and improve overall function
 

During the procedure, chiropractors use their hands or specialized instruments to apply sudden, controlled force to a spinal joint, often resulting in an audible “pop” or “crack” sound. This sound is caused by the release of gas bubbles from the joint fluid.

Spinal adjustments are typically used to address:

  • Lower back pain
  • Leg, knee and foot/ankle pain
  • Neck pain
  • Headaches
  • Shoulder and arm pain
  • Sciatica
 

When performed by trained professionals, chiropractic care may not be suitable for all patients, particularly those with certain medical conditions or spinal abnormalities.
