If you’re looking for a natural way to relieve pain or improve your general health, Dr. Suzanne Kistner-Davis at Davis Chiropractic of Decatur, IL, offers chiropractic adjustments and more to help you achieve your goals.

Guide to Chiropractic Adjustments

Adjustments have been used for over a century to treat pain and dysfunction in the musculoskeletal system, but it’s not unusual to come across someone who has never had an adjustment. Typically, this is due to a lack of understanding of the technique. Dr. Davis and the team at Davis Chiropractic of Decatur, IL, hope to clear up any confusion or misunderstandings about chiropractic adjustments with the facts below.

They Provide Completely Natural Relief

Adjustments are incredibly effective at relieving pressure on the joints, muscles, and nerves, as well as reducing inflammation and restoring balance. This is all accomplished naturally by restoring alignment to the skeletal system. Proper alignment takes undue pressure off surrounding components and allows them to heal without surgery or medication. Your body and its natural healing mechanisms do the work.

They Can Relieve Various Symptoms and Conditions

Adjustments are provided to treat many types of pain and conditions, including but not limited to:

  • Lower back pain
  • Nerve compression
  • Sciatica
  • Neck pain
  • Shoulder pain
  • Headaches
  • Scoliosis
  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Leg pain
  • Disc issues

They are also beneficial in treating sports, auto, and work injuries, as well as improving athletic performance.

They Can Improve and Maintain Your General Health and Wellness

Adjustments aren’t just beneficial for relieving pain and other symptoms. They can play an integral role in your overall health and wellness, as they help improve nerve function, reduce stress, increase blood flow, and more.

They Come in Both Traditional and Gentle Forms

You are likely familiar with traditional adjustments, even if you’ve never had one yourself. These refer to the ones that typically involve high-velocity thrusts or popping noises, and they are applied by hand. These adjustments are very effective, but they aren’t the only ones available.

Gentle adjustments can be provided through the use of a handheld instrument without manual force or twisting. If you’re uncomfortable with the idea of traditional adjustments, let your chiropractor know you prefer the gentle method.
