Chiropractic (Chiro=hand; Practic=practitioner) is a system of care whereby the doctor of chiropractic employs a number of methods to evaluate the joints of the spine. When the spinal joints get stuck (fixated), localized pain in the area can result. Further, a reflex exists whereby the fixated joint will cause the surrounding musculature to tighten and also become irritated.

 

Through the use of five different adjustment methods, the normal joint motion can be restored. The result is a reduction in pain and a return to normal functioning of the spine. At Grunstein Family Chiropractic Center, great care is taken through the 30 minute visit to evaluate each joint of the spine every visit in order to determine which areas need specialized attention. We offer very gentle adjustment methods which result in a pleasant and effective treatment experience.

 

Each patient receives 3 Forms of Physical Therapy every visit, including Electro-therapy, Heat, and Intersegmental Traction, which feels like being on a massage table. These techniques combined with the specific forms of adjusting often result in prompt relief from back pain, neck pain, and headaches.
