What Is an Adjustment in Newnan GA?

An adjustment is defined as a quick stretch of connective tissues such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments to decrease stiffness/fibrosis/scar tissue but most importantly to increase the amount and strength of motion sensory nerve signals from these tissues to the spinal cord and brain for desired effects. These nerve signals help many things such as reduce pain, improve movement, function and strength, and overall nervous system function.

This therapy is the expertise of chiropractic doctors; some are better than others at applying it. Chiropractic adjustments are 100's of times safer for the neck and 1000s of times safer for the rest of the spine and extremities than taking over-the-counter drugs like Advil, Tylenol, and Aleve.

Chiropractic adjustments can be done in many different ways, by hand, with a hand-held device, or table-assisted. Whichever is best for you and what you desire determines which is used. Adjustments are not painful when done correctly.

Manual Adjustments

A Manual Adjustment uses the hands of the doctor and there may or may not be an audible sound, such as your knuckles popping. This sound means nothing other than a change of pressure inside the joint that makes the sound. This manual method provides the quick stretch of tissues to produce the nerve signals we want for relief and better function.

Hand-held device adjustments

We use a type of device called an impulse. This device does not produce the popping sound a manual adjustment typically does. The impulse device provides the quick stretch of tissues to produce the nerve signals we want for relief and better function. This method is more gentle than manual adjustments.

Drop-table adjustments

This type of adjustment uses a table that gives way about an inch to provide the quick stretch of tissues to produce the nerve signals we want for relief and better function. This method is typically more gentle than manual adjustments and rarely will produce a popping sound.

After your initial consultation with our doctor in Newnan GA, together, you will be able to find the right treatment for you.

These limitations are determined by the desire of the chiropractic majority in that state and organizations who want to limit competition from chiropractors. State laws do not reflect the post-graduate study and ability of each chiropractor to advise on many aspects of improved human function.
