Chiropractic adjustments alleviate pain by correcting misalignments in your spine. Delivered by a skilled chiropractor, this approach applies pressure to specific joints in order to address the source of your specific pain. Often, chiropractic adjustments occur alongside other treatments in order to improve the function of your body and reduce discomfort.
What Happens During Chiropractic Adjustments?
During your chiropractic adjustment, you will usually lie on a curved and padded table that places you in the appropriate position for treatment. Dr. Pratik will then use his hands or a device to apply a sudden, forceful thrust on the appropriate joints in order to align your spine and address the areas causing you pain. He may also gently stretch specific joints in order to provide the appropriate spinal positioning. The result should be rapid pain relief and improved functionality as your spine returns to the appropriate place.
