Chiropractic Adjustment
What is chiropractic? Chiropractic is a non-surgical and drugless approach that promotes your innate vitality through "hands on" care with spinal manipulation and soft tissue massage. Chiropractic care is holistic, meaning that the entire body and a person's lifestyle are examined and treated. This may include a discussion of diet, posture and exercises to speed recovery and prevent recurrence.
Dr Mealey practices traditional chiropractic techniques using gentle spinal adjustments as well as the Graston Technique, Spinal Decompression Traction.
What is an adjustment? Chiropractic care is known (but not exclusively) for its use of the adjustment, sometimes called manipulation. An adjustment is a precise procedure in which a trained Doctor of Chiropractic exerts a specific corrective pressure at specific places on your spine or other joint. When a thorough exam reveals joints that are not functioning properly, adjustments are applied to restore correct mobility or alignment, relieve muscle tension, improve balance and assist healing.
