Our Sports Chiropractors have extensive experience and education with manipulating joints throughout the entire body. It is a misconception that chiropractors can only treat spinal pain often involving the neck or the low back areas. In reality, the body moves as a functional system of kinetic chains from head to toe. As such, our chiropractors specialize and frequently address complaints and injuries involving the hip, knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow or wrist as well.
Our sport chiropractors utilize a variety of high force and low force techniques, depending on the necessity and comfort level of the patient. High force low amplitude (HVLA) adjustments can be described at the more traditional form of the chiropractic adjustment, typically followed by a “pop” or a cavitation sound of the synovial joints. This is typically a very fast, but extremely shallow movement administered by the chiropractor to help alleviate stiffness and improve joint range of motion.
Low force techniques are also available in office and include drop table adjustments, activator technique, flexion-distraction therapy, and joint mobilization. These are techniques that can be used independently, or in conjunction with the more ‘traditional’ adjustments. These low force chiropractic adjustments can be great treatment alternatives for patients who have a difficult time relaxing during a traditional adjustment, or have complicating health factors that would not make them a candidate for a HVLA adjustment.
