The Diversified techniques are a family of spinal manipulations (adjustments) which have been developed and documented over the years. Requiring the joint to be placed under tension and with minimal pressure or thrust the spinal joints move and can produce an audible click. This pressure relieving technique is safe, feels great and relieves back pain.
Activator Methods technique is an instrument assisted manipulation. Safe, gentle and effectively used for those who prefer the gentlest of technique or for those unable to receive the more traditional manipulation types. This technique is effective for the smaller joints in your body such as a rib head or TMJ.
In many cases a patient may not receive manipulation. Some patients are not candidates for manipulation because of degeneration, post-surgical changes, certain herniated disks or because of advanced osteoporosis or osteopenia. Manipulation is not a required procedure. Let us help determine the best course of care for you.
