Together we will create a wellness plan that is unique to your goals and needs.
Your spinal health is the key to your whole-body health, and keeping it in proper alignment is one of the best things you can do to remain free from injury, illness and pain.
Chiropractic care is designed to provide spinal correction through adjustments while utilizing scientific yet specific techniques.
THE TECHNIQUES WE OFFER:
-
DIVERSIFIED TECHNIQUE
This technique is the most common chiropractic technique worldwide. The diversified technique allows Dr Jenn to restore motion and function back to your joints and ultimately your nervous system. The technique involves having manual pressure through the affected vertebral segment to deliver a quick but gentle high velocity, low amplitude thrust.
This technique is a safe and effective way of relieving stiffness, pain, and other symptoms. This is the technique that makes that “popping” noise. Do you know what causes that? It’s actually just gas being released from the joint that is locked up!
This type of adjustment is delivered at a precise angle, depth, direction, and speed which requires years of practice, experience, and education.
-
ACTIVATOR METHODS
The Activator Method is an alternative to the most common adjusting technique that works just as well. The Activator Method uses a handheld, spring loaded instrument to perform a low force impulse thrust at different points. The technique features a leg length protocol to screen your body for potential misalignments in a specific scientific way to ensure a great result.
Dr. Jenn holds an Advanced Proficiency rating by Activator based on the training she has received.
-
INTERSEGMENTAL TRACTION
Intersegmental traction mobilizes the spine and stretches the ligaments and muscles at the same time. By doing this we increase blood flow and oxygen to our discs, ligaments and muscles.
After having traction you can expect better balance, strength, less pain and more mobility.
-
WEBSTER TECHNIQUE
This technique is specifically for pregnant women. By providing gentle adjustments and pressure to ligaments we can work to minimize the physical stress that comes with the growth of the fetus. As the pregnancy matures the physical stress can cause misalignments in the spine and pelvis.
Women who receive this care report more comfort and less pain, more energy, and a better ability to move. As with all care during pregnancy, it is best along side care with your midwife or OBGYN.
OUR ASSESSMENT TOOL:
Insight Millennium 2000 is an electronic neurological testing station, which gives insight into the function of your nervous system. Many chiropractors have upgraded to this technology to assess the health and wellbeing of your nervous system. We use this technology to measure subluxations (misalignments of the spine which lead to nerve interference). Subluxations keep our body from functioning properly. They disturb our bodies natural ability to heal. This screening and evaluation system that uses surface electromyography technology (SEMG), was originally designed to measure changes in the spinal muscles of astronauts. This ground breaking examination tool is painless and non-intrusive.
The Insight technology used has also received exclusive certification as a Certified Space Technology by The Space Foundation, which is co-founded by NASA.
Dr Jenn is so proud and excited to be able to bring this exciting technology to our community. It allows her to provide the highest level of care for her patients which is, of course, always the goal of our office.
The Insight Subluxation Station TM is the only technology of its kind certified by the Space Foundation.
