Spinal Manipulation Techniques
Dr. Kirkpatrick's main choice of treatment is the spinal adjustment/manipulation. Dr. Kirkpatrick uses different techniques for his treatments. He performs the following:
Diversified – This is the most common technique used by Chiropractors. The spinal joints are moved with gentle accurate movements. When the joint actually moves, the patient may hear a popping sound associated with the Diversified adjustment.
Thompson – This is another widely used technique in the Chiropractic profession. This technique uses the Adjustment table to move the spinal vertebrae. Our office has a top of the line Thompson table that can accommodate different sizes of patients to make the adjustments very pleasurable.
Activator – This technique uses a device called an Activator to adjust the spine. This is a technique used for patients that don't like the popping sound a typical adjustment makes. Some patients get nervous and prefer the soft tissue technique of the Activator.
Gonstead – This adjustment technique is similar to Diversified. There are some areas of the spine that move more efficiently with this technique.
The therapy and the adjustment techniques will be discussed with the patient and customized to the patient's individual needs and treatment.
