How it works
Inside a chiropractic adjustments session.
Locate the restriction
We palpate segment-by-segment to find the joints that have lost normal motion or become guarded.
Position the segment
You’re positioned so the target joint is isolated and the surrounding tissue is relaxed.
Deliver a controlled thrust
A high-velocity, low-amplitude thrust restores motion. It’s quick, well under a second, and usually feels like a release of pressure.
Support the change
We layer targeted soft-tissue work, mobility drills, or a recovery modality to help the segment hold its new position.

- Restores joint motion where it’s been lost

- Reduces mechanical low-back, neck, and mid-back pain
