Simple Explanation of the Chiropractic Adjustment

Written By Dr. Thaddeus Sharikov

I think that it would be fair to say that there is a lot of confusion and misinformation out there what a chiropractic adjustment is all about. Today, I am going to do my best to explain in the simplest terms what the adjustment is and how it has worked for millions of people around the world live with less pain and better function. 

Basic Definition of Chiropractic Adjustment

  1. The chiropractic adjustment is high speed/low force technique to address an area of your spine that has a misalignment. The spinal column is composed of spinal bones - each one of them is a joint and not only should be aligned properly one on top of the other, but should also have good motion in all directions. Wear and tear, poor posture, accidents and injuries can cause these spinal bones to misalign. The chiropractic adjustment helps reverse this problem. 

  2. The chiropractic adjustment is something specific. There is a difference between a general cracking of your knuckles or whipping your head to one side to make it pop. Doctors of Chiropractic spends years training on finding and correcting the exact area that needs to be fixed. The more specific we can get to finding and fixing areas in your spine that are misaligned, the faster we can get your body into healing mode. 

  3. The chiropractic adjustment improves the function of your nervous system. A person with misalignments in their spine spend a lot of time in the “stress mode” also known as “fight or flight”. Chiropractic adjustments help calm things down and allows your body to be in a relaxed and healing state. This is why so many patients report improved sleep, digestion, and overall mood. 

The chiropractic adjustment has health benefits way beyond pain relief. It is one of the most powerful ways to improve your health. And this is done naturally, without drugs or surgery.
