Understanding Spinal Adjustments

Spinal adjustment help realign the spine, which can ease pressure occurring in the nerves and soft tissue. During the process, we also help improve your circulation, which can enhance healing and wellness. Not only that, the adjustment can improve the function of the nervous system and relieve the pain.

You may hear a cracking noise during your session, which happens when small air bubbles are released from your joints. This is a normal part of the treatment and should not cause any concern. Your appointment should typically take about 20 to 30 minutes. Before your session begins, we will have you fill out some paperwork and review your medical history.

Chiropractic Treatment for Pain Relief

We may recommend a chiropractic adjustment if you have generalized back pain. Our team may also suggest the treatment if you are experiencing back pain due to a specific reason, such as sciatica. A chiropractic adjustment can also be beneficial if you have degenerative disc disease, which causes your discs to wear out over time. 

We also use spinal adjustments to help ease headaches or migraines. The treatment can relieve the stress that is affecting the upper region of your back and neck. Not only that, but it also helps improve how your nervous system functions and increases the flow of nutrients, which can improve circulation and relieve headaches.

For most patients, chiropractic adjustments are completely safe. However, our chiropractor our chiropractor will first perform an evaluation to ensure that the treatment is safe and helpful for your condition.
