Chiropractic manipulation is used to help restore normal function and motion to a joint that is fixated. This procedure typically involves gentle pressure or a shallow thrust to restore optimal motion. An adjustment may be accompanied by a "pop" or "cracking" noise, which is simply nitrogen gas being released.

Research continues to prove that chiropractic manipulation is safe, effective and have high levels of patient satisfaction. In 1994, the U.S. Agency for Health Care Policy deemed chiropractic manipulation as the gold standard for treating low back pain. Research continues to support the effectiveness of chiropractic care for low back pain, neck pain, headaches, carpal tunnel syndrome and other common maladies.

Patients benefit from our manipulative therapy techniques, which are based on the most current research. We aim to provide our patients the most effective conservative care techniques available, and to achieve long-term results in fewer treatment sessions.
