About chiropractic adjustments care at our clinic
An adjustment is one of the most recognisable parts of chiropractic care, and also one of the most misunderstood. Here is a plain-English guide to what it is, the different ways we perform it and what you might feel.
- Manual. A quick, controlled movement applied by hand to a specific joint.
- Drop table. A table section that drops a short distance, reducing the force needed.
- Instrument-assisted. A handheld instrument delivers a small, precise impulse without twisting.
