Offering the Skills and Techniques You Need

Our doctors specialize in Diversified Chiropractic Technique, Thompson Technique, Activator Method, and Cox Flexion Distraction. We also offer a wide variety of therapies that help support a patient’s recovery.

  • Diversified Technique is a manual manipulation which directs a quick, high velocity thrust over restricted joints with the goal of restoring normal range of motion in the joint.
  • Thompson Technique requires a specialized table which allows for segments to be elevated at specific areas of the spine allowing for a manual adjustment with specific force and direction to be performed.  During the adjustment the elevated pieces will drop back to the level position.
  • Activator Method is a manual manipulation using an activator adjusting instrument which utilizes a high velocity, low amplitude thrust over restricted joints with the goal of restoring normal range of motion in the joint.
  • Cox Flexion Distraction is a gentle manual decompression and stretching of the lower spine.
