Johnson Chiropractic Center

Like all chiropractors, we use spinal adjustments to correct the abnormal alignment of the spinal column. This relieves nerve interference which can lead to pain, numbness, or a variety of other symptoms. This is known by chiropractors as a vertebral subluxation.

The technique used at Johnson Chiropractic Center uses a low velocity thrust made by hand, directly to the problem vertebrae. This approach allows for spinal correction to be made with little to no rotation of the spine.

By limiting rotation, this technique decreases some of the adverse side effects associated with high velocity adjustments. It can be used on anyone from the ages of 0-100, and on some conditions that may be irritated by forceful adjustments.

Along with the low velocity adjustments we use heat, ice, Electric Muscle Stimulation, and ultrasound to treat the soft tissue component to the injury.
