Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is about more than just relieving symptoms! At Lensgraf Chiropractic Clinic, our definition of health is optimum performance of all body systems under the guidance of your nervous system. We believe that health is about more than “not being sick,” but optimizing your body’s inherent capabilities for natural health.
Adjustment Techniques
We care about your nervous system! Because your nervous system controls and coordinates all organs and structures within you, good spinal health is essential for accurate communication between your brain and your body. If disturbances occur, a dysfunctioning spine may eventually cause incoordination and a diminished ability for your nervous system to maintain homeostasis.
At Lensgraf Chiropractic Clinic, we may suggest one of the following or a combination of adjustment techniques to bring your spine back to optimal function through a treatment plan developed exclusively for you:
- Diversified technique
- Palmer Gonstead
- Palmer Thompson
- Toggle-Recoil
- Activator Method
All adjustments performed by our experienced chiropractors are gentle, safe and effective. Though some patients are concerned with pain, we’d like you to know that most people experience no discomfort at all and enjoy the relief that adjustments often bring.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a subluxation?
A: To begin, most patients at our office have some degree of subluxation! A subluxation is the condition of a vertebra that has lost its proper position on the vertebral disc resulting in it becoming fixated and losing its proper motion. This can lead to local inflammation, disc degeneration, bulging or even herniation and nerve signal interference.
Q: What does an adjustment do?
A: During an adjustment, our goal is to restore the vertebra’s proper position on its vertebral disc, improving joint motion and removing local inflammation. This helps to normalize distribution of force on the disc while also removing nerve interference.
Q: Is chiropractic safe?
A: Absolutely! Studies have shown that there is a very low risk in a chiropractic adjustment. Chiropractors are highly educated and trained to not only perform their distinct profession, but to recognize problems outside their scope of practice and refer to the necessary and appropriate healthcare provider if necessary. At Lensgraf Chiropractic Clinic, we have an active referral network with providers of all specialties and we take our responsibilities concerning your health seriously!
