Spinal manipulation is a controlled manual technique applied to joints to improve movement and nervous system function. This usually involves a short sharp push into your joint which promotes movement in the joint, while taking pressure of pain receptors. The popping sound is gas being released in the joint capsule, this is a completely normal process in the stretching of a capsulated joint.
The Activator uses a handheld instrument for gentle adjustments. This is a great alternative for minimal force joint manipulation.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort. Joints may feel sore or stiff following adjustments, especially if you are new to Chiropractic treatment. However this is completely normal, and within the next 24 hours you should feel the loose effect of the adjustment.
Soft tissue therapy targets muscles and fascia.
Yes, targeted massage techniques are commonly incorporated.
Joint mobilisation uses slow, controlled movements through the joint’s range of motion. This is an alternative to the quick thrust of an adjustment and can have similar effects on the joint.
Yes, all techniques are individualised. In the first appointment we will explain what treatment is most suitable to your condition, while listening to your preferences and discomforts.
Preferences are discussed during consultation. Your preference is taken into account when making your treatment plan.
Some treatments use instruments or therapy devices. Tools we may utilise in a regular Chiropractic treatment can include a massage gun and Activator.
No, audible sounds are not required for effectiveness. It is a good sign that movement is being created in the joint, but not needed for good results. Some areas of your body inherently pop more than others.
