Myofascial massage therapy/ stretching
There are a number of massage techniques which may be
necessary to use on a patient, either before or after and
adjustment. If muscles are hypertonic (too tense), it may be
necessary to loosen them up before an adjustment simply to
allow the vertebrae to put back into place. On other occasions,
even after an adjustment is made, it is still necessary to help
loosen muscle to prevent them from pulling the vertebrae back
out of place before the body has a chance to re-adapt to the
correct alignment again.

Treatment
When you come into the office as a patient you will be evaluated
for any vertebral subluxations (areas in the spine with restriction
motion with interference along the nerves). You will be given a
specific adjustment to realign those vertebrae and remove the
subluxation. You may also be given some minor myofascial
massage techniques or stretching in the corresponding areas to
help maintain the adjustment. If necessary, work may be done
on the extremities (arms, legs, hips, shoulders, etc...),
adjustments and muscle work, as well to help maintain normal
alignment.

Spinal adjustment
The primary goal of chiropractic is to remove the vertebral
subluxation to allow optimal communication between the brain
and the body through the nervous system. This is accomplished
by applying a specific force to the vertebrae to push them
directly back into place restoring normal motion. There are a
number of techniques used to accomplish this which depend on
both the doctor and the patient and how their bodies work in
accord.

Extremity adjustment
In some cases, there is a need to adjust the joints of the limbs. If
the foundation is unstable, it may be necessary to address the
feet, ankles, knees or hips. In other cases, the upper limbs may
need to be adjusted as well to restore normal function so the core
of the body is not strained when using the arms.

Exercises
Chiropractic by itself is a powerful tool, but it is also necessary
for the patient to take an active part in the healing process. In
order to do that, sometimes, certain exercises are required to be
performed at home to help stabilize your body. Without this
additional help, healing can still proceed, but it will do so at a
slower rate.
