Chiropractic Care
Pain can affect your work, sleep, exercise, and everyday routine. At HHP, chiropractic care begins with a conversation about your symptoms, health history, and goals. We then assess movement and relevant musculoskeletal findings to determine whether chiropractic treatment is appropriate or whether another evaluation is needed.
Chiropractic Techniques We May Use
MANUAL ADJUSTING
Manual chiropractic adjusting is a hands-on technique used to realign the spine and improve joint function. By applying precise, controlled force to specific areas, this method helps relieve back pain, neck pain, headaches, and muscle tension. It’s one of the most common and effective techniques in chiropractic care for restoring spinal health and mobility.
ACTIVATOR ADJUSTING
Activator Adjusting is a gentle, low-force chiropractic technique using a handheld instrument to deliver precise, targeted adjustments. This method helps reduce pain, inflammation, and muscle tension while improving spinal alignment and mobility—ideal for those seeking a more subtle approach to chiropractic care.
THOMPSON DROP TABLE
The Thompson Drop Table technique uses a segmented chiropractic table that gently drops with each adjustment, allowing for precise spinal corrections with minimal force. This method is ideal for patients seeking a gentle, effective treatment for back pain, joint dysfunction, arthritis, or osteoporosis.
FLEXION DISTRACTION TABLE
This specialized chiropractic table uses gentle traction and flexion to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves. Ideal for treating herniated discs, sciatica, and low back pain, it offers a non-invasive, drug-free approach to spinal decompression and pain relief.
How Chiropractic Adjustments Work
Your spine is made up of 24 movable vertebrae that work together to support flexibility, movement, and everyday activities.
When spinal joints become stiff or restricted, surrounding muscles and joints may compensate, potentially causing discomfort, tension, and reduced mobility.
Chiropractic adjustments help improve joint movement, reduce discomfort, and support healthy spinal function. By addressing areas of restricted motion, chiropractic care can help you move more comfortably and maintain an active lifestyle.
