CHIROPRACTIC MANIPULATIVE THERAPY

Chiropractic Manipulative Therapy or an “adjustment” refers to a high-velocity low-amplitude thrust

(a gentle but firm movement), to help restore function and motion to a joint that has become restricted.

 

The adjustment also stimulates the nervous system to help reduce pain and relax local musculature.  

​

The “popping’ noise often heard during an adjustment is the release of nitrogen gas from a joint capsule.  

Research supports that motion is restored to a restricted joint following Chiropractic Manipulative Therapy,

but no bones are moved for this to happen. 

90% of athletes use chiropractic
“I would estimate that at least 90% of
        world class athletes
              use Chiropractic on a regular basis to
                      prevent injuries and to
                                       improve their performance.”

Overuse or injury of muscles can cause your body to produce tough, dense scar tissue

​

As scar tissue builds up-

Muscles become shorter and weaker resulting in reduced range of motion

Tension on tendons causes tendonitis and loss of strength and pain

Nerves can become trapped causing tingling, numbness and weakness

Scar tissue effects all forms of soft tissue: muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves

And can be the cause of acute conditions (pulls, tears, collisions, trauma injuries)

Accumulation of small tears (micro-trauma)

Not getting enough oxygen (hypoxia)
