The main form of treatment is called an adjustment, which involves a non-invasive procedure consisting of a precise direct movement to help relieve pain or discomfort, while restoring range of motion. Chiropractic adjustments can be applied to the spine, limbs, and ribs. Activator (instrument adjustment) and soft tissue therapies are employed to re-establish a healthy functional spine, limbs, and nervous system. Customized therapies such as x-ray, trigger points, or ultrasound may be utilized.
When appropriate, a referral can be made to specialized health care professionals.
