The treatments vary based on the examination. Call 704-303-9040
First, a Chiropractor wants to be specific in knowing exactly which segments of your Spine and pelvis are stuck out of alignment. This information is obtained through a through exam and x-rays. Then the Chiropractor usually using Chiropractic Adjustments to free up the joint that is stuck out of alignment. These Adjustments are done either by hand or with a Chiropractic Adjustment Instrument. Also, traction, electric stimulation, ultrasound and muscle relaxation work and exercises can be used too.

Hello, There are literally hundred's of " technique's " to treat the spine for various condition's. Many " Technique's " that are taught in all Chiropractic School's. Every School had thier " Founder's " whom attended " Palmer School of Chiropractic ". Now known as Palmer College of Chiropractic. It has alway's been the " Harvard/ Mayo Clinic " of Chiropractic. Yes, I am a Graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic. Do I know exceptional Doctor's of Chiropractic from other School's.... Most certainly @! A Chiropractor who has spent hundred's of hour's learning non- taught excellent techniques outside of thier School's are the most excellent Chiropractor's. Please excuse some of the absurd " Quack like a Duck " seen on Tic-Toc or Facebook make many of us, " Sick to our stomachs "@!!!! Ask around Church, Gym's, Medical Doctor's, Nurse's ect. who they would recommend. That is the best way to find a Chiropractor who is highly reputable. I wish you well.
The methods are so many.
Most important find a chiropractor who is:

1) going to spend at least 45 minutes each session.

2) staying away from chiropractors who will ask you to buy a package deal of 10 visits in advance.

And you will be most likely fine
Every Chiropractor practices a bit differently. In fact there are over 300 chiropractic techniques that can be used to fix your spine. My biased input is that you should find someone who uses a gentler, more specific approach as opposed to a more hands traditional approach.
