What happens during a chiropractic adjustment?

Our chiropractor will provide personalized treatment tailored to your specific needs. You will lie face down on a chiropractic table that allows segments of your body to lift slightly, enabling our chiropractor to apply targeted pressure to the affected area.

Using their hands or small instruments, our chiropractor will apply a quick, controlled force to the joint or gently stretch your joints beyond their normal range of motion. This helps align the vertebrae in your spine and releases trapped gases within your joints.

Suitable for all ages

Chiropractic adjustments are appropriate for individuals of all ages, from children to older adults. While the most common age range for seeking care tends to be people in their 40s, 50s, and 60s, people of every age can benefit.

Frequently asked questions

We know you may have questions before your first visit. Here are the ones we hear most often.

Chiropractic adjustments typically involve minimal to no pain during the procedure. You may feel sensations similar to those experienced after a workout. Our chiropractor's controlled force creates a cracking or popping noise as gas leaves your joints. While it may sound uncomfortable, it is not painful.
The popping or cracking sound is completely normal and occurs as gases, including carbon dioxide, oxygen, and nitrogen, are released from your joints. Similar to the sound when you crack your knuckles, this gas release is a natural part of the adjustment process.
Adjustments focus on alleviating symptoms that affect the musculoskeletal system, including relieving aches and pain, reducing muscle stiffness, and managing chronic conditions. Chiropractic care is a popular treatment option that does not involve prescription medication.
Chiropractic adjustments are suitable for individuals of all ages, including children and adults. Our team will evaluate your unique situation and design a care plan that is appropriate and effective for your body and goals.
