GONSTEAD CHIROPRACTIC
Chiropractic's Gold Standard
Gonstead Chiropractic
Our body has the innate ability to heal itself from within when properly aligned. Dr. Adam offers 100% Gonstead Chiropractic adjustments.
Gonstead is the highest standard in providing hands-on chiropractic adjustments and allows Dr. Adam to be very specific with the care he provides.
The belief behind this proven technique is that a pair of skilled chiropractic hands is the best way to analyze and correct spinal misalignments.
Dr. Adam is able to feel exactly where subluxations are located, confirm his findings with digital X-rays, apply the appropriate amount of gentle force, and actually feel the movement of the vertebrae or joint. Adjustments are very specific and adjusted to meet your individual needs.
Six Criteria for Analysis
1. X-Rays – Essential full-spine digital x-rays of the spine are used to provide an accurate postural analysis, showing problems other than chief complaints. We specifically analyze these x-rays to be used at each visit.
2. Motion Palpation – This “hands on” technique precisely pinpoints problematic areas and is use to determine fixations or “stuck joints” and their range of motion.
3. Static Palpation – Using light touch to identify chronic versus acute areas as well as minute changes in the tissue and muscles.
4. Instrumentation – A bilateral Nervoscope measures temperature along the spine to point out areas of inflammation. It is used each visit to allow us to focus on the true problems rather than treating symptoms.
5. Visualization – A visual analysis of the body formation, posture, structure and gait.
6. Case Management – We use a proven system that specializes in finding the underlying cause to develop a road map for corrective care and to maintain both structure and function of the spine and nervous system.
Medicine is the study of disease and what causes man to die. Chiropractic is the study of health and what causes man to live.
