What is joint manipulation?

Joint manipulation is simply a way of physically restoring motion to a restricted joint. There are many ways to accomplish this. The type of manipulation used depends on your injury, the joint involved, and what is most comfortable for you. We specialize in making joint manipulation a gentle and relaxing treatment.

What does joint manipulation do?

Healthy, pain-free joints must have unrestricted motion. Manipulation of a joint is used to accomplish the following therapeutic benefits:

1. Restore full joint motion

2. Decrease pain

3. Reduce muscle spasm

4. Provide nutrition to the joints

Is Manipulation only for my back?

No. The days of chiropractic care being limited to the spine are long gone. As sports chiropractic physicians, we are trained to address injuries in all regions of the body. Joint manipulation can be used to treat joints from head to toe. While not always necessary, joint manipulation is often a key component to a fast recovery and optimum performance.
