What is a Chiropractic Adjustment?
A chiropractic adjustment is a high velocity low amplitude thrust in a specific direction to correct a physical subluxation (see What is a Subluxation?). At Jones Chiropractic we utilize different ways to accomplish this chiropractic adjustment:
Manual Adjustments: chiropractor uses his/her hands to adjust, usually creating a "popping" sound. If you are uncomfortable with the "popping" sound there is a second option.
Instrument-Assisted Adjustments: chiropractor uses a specifically crafted instrument to make the adjustment which normally does not produce a “popping” sound.
