Chiropractic Adjustments

According to Mayo Clinic, a chiropractic adjustment is “…a procedure in which trained specialists called chiropractors use their hands or a small instrument to apply a controlled force to a spinal joint. The goal of this procedure, also called spinal manipulation, is to improve spinal motion and the body’s ability to move.”

Adjustments focus on pain relief, increasing range of motion, getting rid of stiffness, and making you feel more comfortable. Chiropractic adjustments help with back pain, neck pain, hip pain, shoulder pain and any other bodily discomfort.
