Chiropractic Techniques Sampler
Activator Method – A small, hand- held instrument is used to gently address targeted areas for many condi- tions, especially low back pain and specific types of headaches including migraine. It’s considered safe for chil- dren and patients with severe arthritis and osteoporosis.
Directional Non-Force Technique – This gentle method stimulates reflex reactions to determine potential discrep- ancy in leg lengths and corrective mea- sures. It improves structural alignment and function and aids natural healing responses.
Flexion-Distraction (Cox Method) – Mechanical and hands-on adjustment aids in stretching of the back. This method is especially beneficial for degenerative disc dis- ease, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, scoliosis, neck and back pain and restricted spinal joints.
Graston Technique – Instrument- assisted, soft tissue mobilization helps reduce scar tissue and persistent pain from acute and old injuries, as well as resolve longstanding trigger points in muscles and joints. It promotes circu- lation in affected areas to reduce pain and inflammation. It also may allay non-systemic causes of fibromyalgia.
Network Spinal Analysis (network chiropractic) – This low-force technique addresses the entire body to improve communication between the brain and nerves via points along the spine and is suited to all ages.
Somato Respiratory Integration – Special exercises leverage the body-breath connection to assist stress man- agement, tension release and whole body awareness. It employs focus, breath work, touch and movement. Com- patible with other treatments, it can also be done at home.
