ADJUSTMENTS/ MANIPULATION

The term "adjustment" refers to the specific manipulation chiropractors apply to vertebrae that have abnormal movement patterns or fail to function normally. Oftentimes a patient will feel muscle tightness, pain or spasms in the area where the vertebrae are misaligned. The objective of the chiropractic treatment is to reduce the misalignment aka as a subluxation, which results in increased range of motion, reduced nerve irritability, reduced pain, reduced muscle spasms and improved function.

The adjustment made by a chiropractor consists of a gentle thrust applied to a vertebra, and takes just a matter of seconds to treat 1 specific vertebra. Dr. Floro is versed in numerous up to date chiropractic methods and will discuss which chiropractic method she feels would work best for you. Various chiropractic treatments Dr. Floro offers are gentle hands on methods, using an hand held instrument called the Activator , using a drop table, SOT blocks, trigger point muscle therapy, and muscle testing / Applied Kinesiology.
