Chiropractic Adjustments

A chiropractic adjustment is a non-invasive, drug-free therapeutic treatment rooted in holistic wellness to relieve pain, promote spinal health, and support the body’s natural ability to heal.

During a chiropractic adjustment, quick, controlled force is applied to trigger expansion in your joints, decompression in your discs, relaxation in your muscles, a reduction of inflammation, and a release of endorphins which act as natural pain-relieving endorphins.

The chiropractic adjustment is a technique used to correct joint dysfunction in which there is a loss of normal movement of the joint. This loss of motion tends to create discomfort and ultimately lead to regular pain. Manipulation by a chiropractor restores mobility, which alleviates pain and muscle tightness. Overall, chiropractic adjustments enable and allow strained tissues to heal and even reduce stress.

At Kersenbrock Chiropractic our flexion-distraction table (Therapies) supports the gentle decompression of the spine and enhances the results of your chiropractic adjustments.

No, a professional chiropractic adjustment should not be painful or cause any long-term structural damage. While you may occasionally experience mild, temporary side effects—such as slight muscle soreness, a minor headache, brief lightheadedness, or localized stiffness near the treatment area—these are completely normal, benign, and temporary signs of your body adapting to realigned posture.
