THE TECHNIQUES WE USE IN JACKSONVILLE FL

Chiropractic care is often combined with other types of care such as massage or nutritional changes. We can offer more than a general practitioner as we treat the whole body, not just a band-aid on the symptoms. Below are some of the techniques we use.

• Diversified technique: This involves small thrusts to the joints to provide more movement within the joint. It is effective for those with spinal misalignment, joint problems, and movement concerns.
• Gonstead technique: Similar to the Diversified technique, this is a hands-on manipulation used to reduce pain, and realign and improve movement.
• Thompson technique: Also known as the drop table technique, this method involves the use of a padded platform table. As the doctor performs adjustments, the table drops just slightly. This makes the technique very comfortable for the patient. The technique is used for issues with the spine or extremities.
• Activator technique: A device is used to distribute gentle pulses to various parts of the spine or to the extremities. This method is helpful for headaches, low back pain and is painless.
• Flexion Distraction: This method is also known as the Cox technique or decompression manipulation. Its gentle stretching is achieved through the use of a specially designed table. Chiropractors use the Flexion Distraction to treat herniated discs, scoliosis, facet joint pain, and other conditions.
