The primary focus of chiropractic is simply to adjust the spine and remove those things which interfere with the body’s natural normal healing ability.
Following consultation and examination, a program of care will be designed for your specific needs. This program is centered around the chiropractic “adjustment,” a method of treatment unique to chiropractic, which corrects spinal subluxations and dysfunction.
Dr. Petrucci will likely use a variety of methods to properly adjust your spine, including manual adjustment or instrument-assisted adjustment with the ProAdjuster™.
The chiropractic adjustment results in:
- Increased range of motion
- Reduced nerve irritability
- Reduced muscle spasm
- Reduced pain
- Improved function
You may feel immediate improvement after an adjustment, although most people experience gradual, progressive relief of symptoms.
Since adjustments restore motion to previously locked joints, ligaments and tendons begin to stretch back to their normal length. This lengthening may cause slight muscle soreness similar to that brought on by rigorous exercise.
