Techniques We Offer for Neck and Back Pain

Our chiropractors utilize several techniques to help the body heal from back pain and neck pain. After a thorough assessment of your current health and medical history, we will determine which technique or combination of techniques best fit your needs. These techniques include:

Gonstead Technique: This technique is used to adjust the spine, pelvis, and other extremities. Each adjustment during this treatment is completed using a careful methodology. It is a safe, gentle, and thorough procedure and comes with a proven track record packed with lasting results.

Soft Tissue Therapy: This treatment focuses on the ligaments and muscles instead of directly on the spine. It helps break up scar tissue and release toxins from the body. This technique is hands-on and reduces compressive stress on the body. It can also help speed up the healing process.

Graston Technique: This soft tissue mobilization is an instrument-assisted technique that scrapes and massages. It identifies restrictive areas to help increase function.

Flexion-Distraction Treatment: This technique decompresses and stretches the spine, helping treat conditions like herniated discs, joint dysfunction, and scoliosis, which can cause severe neck pain and back pain. It is done on a table that moves as one of our chiropractors manipulates your spine.

Thompson Technique: It is also referred to as the drop-table technique since it involves the use of a special precision table that adjusts to keep the patient comfortable during the treatment. It treats neck and back pain and is known for its gentle nature.
