We adjust more than just the spine: Extremity adjustments at Trueform
Beyond the spine, your body relies on a complex network of joints in your arms and legs for everyday movement. When these joints experience dysfunction, it can lead to pain, stiffness, and limitations in your daily activities.
At Trueform, we offer extremity adjustments, a specialized chiropractic technique designed to restore optimal function and mobility in your extremities.
What are Extremity Adjustments?
Similar to spinal adjustments, extremity adjustments involve applying controlled force to specific joints in your arms and legs. We use gentle techniques to adjust these joints, promoting:
- Improved Range of Motion: Reclaim flexibility and a wider range of movement in your extremities.
- Reduced Pain: Target stiffness and discomfort in your shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, ankles, and even jaw.
- Enhanced Body Mechanics: Improved joint function in your extremities can positively impact your movement patterns.
- Faster Recovery: Support your body’s natural healing process following injuries or overuse.
What Extremity Joints Do We Adjust?
- Upper Extremity: shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands
- Lower Extremity: hips, knees, ankles, feet
- Other: Jaw (TMJ)
Extremity Adjustment FAQs:
- Are there ways to adjust without hearing the “popping” sound? Of course. We offer a variety of adjusting techniques to choose from. Instrument adjustments and drop table adjustments are among the two techniques we utilize that do not create the “popping” sound.
- What makes the “popping” sound during an adjustment? The popping sound you hear during a chiropractic adjustment, also known as “cavitation”, is not actually your bones cracking! The sound comes from pressure being released from the joint that is adjusted.
