Chiropractic techniques of North Hills Spinal Associates.

Our chiropractic techniques consist of a number of highly effective adjusting approaches to help improve spinal bio-mechanics and reduce nervous system interference. The approach we use is based on our judgment and years of experience. Think of an adjustment as "tuning" a piano, adjusting each string so it produces the perfect tone.

The primary adjusting techniques we use include:

Diversified, full spine:

After identifying which spinal bones have lost their normal motion or position, a specific manual thrust is administered to free up "stuck" joints.

Gonstead:

Named for its developer, we conduct a thorough evaluation using full spine X-rays.

Thompson: A "non-popping" technique.

Thompson Terminal Point technique is a system of analysis and a special table that reduces the amount of energy needed to adjust your spine.

Activator/Arthrostim Methods: Another "non-popping" technique.

This is a system of spinal evaluation combined with a handheld adjusting instrument that delivers a consistent, low-force thrust.

We also specialize in shoulder,elbow,wrist,hand,knee,ankle,feet and jaw adjustments.
