What is an Adjustment?
Read moreAdjustments or spinal manipulation are treatment techniques used by chiropractors to restore normal motion to a dysfunctional spinal joint. The manoeuvre is a High-velocity, Low-amplitude thrust that is usually accompanied by an audible release or “cracking” sound. This sound is a cavitation occurs as a result of an expansion of gas bubbles within the joint.
During the examination, a chiropractor will use a technique called Motion Palpation to feel for restricted movement and a reproduction of pain/symptoms at each vertebral level along the spine. Once a restricted segment has been identified, the chiropractor will correct this dysfunctional movement with an adjustment.

If I can click my own back/neck, why do I need to see a chiropractor?
Read moreA chiropractor is well trained in motion palpation techniques (a method of examination in order to find the restricted/’stuck’ vertebral segments). Once the chiropractor has determined where these restrictions are, a very specific adjustment will be performed in order to get the restricted segment moving normally again. A chiropractor uses techniques which they have mastered over many years. When a chiropractor qualifies, he/she has had 4 years of adjusting technique training as well as a minimum of 2 years clinical experience.
