FAQ
A manipulation (also known as an adjustment) is a high velocity, low amplitude thrust applied to a specific joint in order to provide a therapeutic result. Our chiropractors take great care to use a gentle approach when performing manipulations, via tools such as an activator and drop table.
The manipulation can sometimes cause a little bit of soreness afterwards, as your body adjusts. This is similar to soreness you may feel after a massage. Most of the discomfort will go away after the manipulation is performed several times. Discomfort is often related to how long you waited before you sought treatment for your pain or illness. The sooner we can start the manipulations after onset, the less discomfort you will feel and the fewer treatments you will need for your continued good health.
