SPINAL ADJUSTMENTS:

Key Benefits

  • A chiropractic adjustment is the art of using a specific force in a precise direction, 
    applied to a joint that is fixated, "locked up", or not moving properly. This adds 
    motion to the joint, helping the bones gradually return to a more normal position 
    and motion. The purpose of this safe and natural procedure is improved spinal 
    function, improved nervous system function, and improved health.

    There are many ways to adjust the spine.  Usually the doctor's hands or a specially 
    designed instrument delivers a brief and highly-accurate thrust. Some adjusting 
    methods are quick, whereas others require a slow and constant pressure.

    After years of training and clinical experience, each chiropractic doctor becomes 
    highly skilled in the delivery of a variety of adjusting approaches.
COX DISTRACTION MANIPULATION creates a "push, pull, pumping" 
effect on the intervertebral disc space and allows the following:

COX DISTRACTION MANIPULATION BENEFITS

  • Allows the nucleus pulposus (A) inside the disc to assume its central position within 
    the anular fibers and relieve irritations on the spinal nerve (B) caused by swelling.

  • Increases the intervertebral disc height (C) to remove tension on the anular fibers 
    and nerve (B) by making more room and improving circulation.
  • Restores vertebral joints (D) to their physiological relationships of motion (realigns 
    your spine); Improves posture and movement while relieving pain, improving bodily 
    functions, and creating a state of well-being.
