Our Chiropractic Techniques
We use a number of highly-effective adjusting approaches to help improve spinal biomechanics and reduce nervous system interference. The approach we use is based on our clinical judgment and years of experience.
The primary adjusting techniques we use include:
Diversified
After identifying which vertebrae have lost their normal motion or position, a specific manual thrust is applied to free up “stuck” spinal joints. read more»
Activator Methods®

Muscle Energy Technique
Muscle Energy Technique (MET), developed by Dr. Fred Mitchell Sr DO, is a direct technique in which the therapist utilizes the muscle barrier concept to position the patient’s body at their restrictive barriers.

A gentle isometric contraction is used by the patient to normalize the joint dysfunction. MET will help reduce protective muscle spasm, fascial tension, pain, increase joint mobility, restore proper joint biomechanics and postural alignment. You will see immediate changes in your patient’s pain and functional level. The goal of MET is to correct motion restrictions and improve the client’s functional range of motion. Because of the gentleness and effectiveness of MET, it is appropriate with the following patient populations; neurological, amputees, sports injuries, auto accidents, pediatrics, geriatrics, respiratory and general orthopedic conditions. The focus of these courses is to teach techniques that are unique to MET regarding evaluation, prioritizing findings and treatment of joint stiffness.
