What is Adjustment?
Chiropractic Adjustment is the art of introducing a specific force in a precise direction, applied to a vertebra that is not moving properly.
Dr. Morgan identifies the location of these spinal / joint restrictions by motion palpation and determines the exact direction and the best way to correct the positioning.
The adjustment frees-up the restricted vertebra and restores proper range of motion and normal alignment.
This directly relieves stress and tension from the surrounding musculature and helps alleviate pain.
The adjustment is very specific and will vary from Chiropractor to Chiropractor as well as patient to patient.
What Is That “Cracking” Noise
Your joints contain fluid that helps keep them healthy and lubricated (like oil in a car).
This “Synovial Fluid” contains gas (like carbonation in soft drinks). When an adjustment is made you may hear a noise.
This is known as an “Audible Release” and is simply the release of gas in the joint much like when you open a can of soda.
Are Chiropractic Treatments Safe?
