CHIROPRACTIC TECHNIQUES

Alpharetta Chiropractic Care. Which technique Is right for you? The focus of this technique is the non-surgical reduction of neuro-compressive disc and non-discal lesions of the spine.

Full Spine/ Diversified

This hands-on chiropractic technique focuses on correcting spinal misalignments (subluxations) and improving joint movement. Unlike other methods, it does not use table drops or instruments—only the chiropractor’s hands.

🔹 Adjustments are guided by palpation (feeling for motion restrictions) to determine the precise area that needs correction.

🔹 A popping sound may occur as the joint releases pressure.

🔹 Using specific force and direction, the correction is made with minimal discomfort.

Gentle & Assisted Adjustment

For patients who prefer a gentler approach—such as seniors, children, or those uncomfortable with traditional adjustments—assisted techniques offer a safe, effective alternative.

Thompson Technique – Uses a specialized table with drop sections for a gentle adjustment.
Activator Technique – A handheld instrument applies targeted, low-force impulses to realign the spine.

These techniques provide the same benefits as manual adjustments but with less force and no “cracking” sounds.
