We pride ourselves on giving you the very best care. Through the years, many patients keep returning to us for care because of the results we provide. Techniques used: decompression, percussor, diversified technique, impulse adjuster, flexion / distraction, radiology. Diversified technique is one of the most frequently used procedures. Diversified procedures consist of high-velocity, low-amplitude (HVLA) thrusts applied specifically to a short lever. These techniques attempt to use the normal biomechanics of the spine and extremities to create motion at a vertebra or extremity joint with the goal of restoring function and structure to the joint. Flexion-distraction is a mechanically assisted form of joint mobilization or distraction. Flexion-distraction has been advanced in the chiropractic profession largely by the work of chiropractor James Cox.
