What is a chiropractic adjustment?
After a skilled and precise evaluation of the spine and any necessary imaging, Dr. Jenny creates a custom adjustment for your spine structure, age, level of arthritis and personal preference (some patients prefer a lighter or heavier touch). The chiropractic adjustment is generally a hands-on (patient is clothed) specific force in a precise direction that helps to normalize spinal function. Applying a force to a joint that is “locked up”, or moving improperly, helps the bones to return to a more normal motion or position, restoring the body’s natural healing. Your chiropractic adjuster is trained to find and correct a spinal subluxation, or area of stress in the spine.
Chiropractic Techniques
There are many different chiropractic techniques, and often the chiropractic adjuster will choose a combination that suits the practice member’s spine and health. Dr. Jenny provides chiropractic adjustments in the Amherst, NH area with an array of effective chiropractic techniques. Thompson technique utilizes a “drop table” where you feel the table lift up about an inch then move down as the specific force is applied to the spine. There is no twisting, turning or popping of the spine during this technique. Toggle Recoil technique is an upper cervical technique performed on the upper cervical vertebrae. The precision and effectiveness of this technique is the cornerstone of SCC’s chiropractic adjustments. Taking pressure off the nervous system in this area allows for ease and movement in the upper spine and corresponding muscles. As appropriate, Dr. Jenny also may utilize traditional techniques like Diversified and Gonstead, where safe shifting of the spine may be heard and felt. Light touch techniques, like the Activator instrument, may be performed in certain situations as well. Dr. Jenny also incorporates CBP, or Chiropractic Biophysics Technique, for structural integrity and correction.
