Diversified Adjustment Technique in Bellmore

The goal of a chiropractic adjustment is to naturally help restore spinal motion, while also relieving pain. Diversified adjustment is the most common chiropractic technique, and will aid in pain relief throughout the body.

What is Diversified Adjustment Technique

Diversified adjustment is a technique through which the Chiropractor seeks to eliminate spinal pain, and restore the full range of spinal mobility. Because it can be applied to each section of the spine, diversified adjustment has become the most popular Chiropractic technique. In many ways, it has become synonymous with chiropractic treatment itself.

The goal of a diversified adjustment treatment is to restore proper motion of the spine by moving restricted joints. When done correctly, this treatment can cause a popping noise, which is often associated with pain relief. The popping sound occurs when the joint is pushed past its normal range of motion, which triggers a pressure change in the joint. This change in pressure causes the gases in the fluid of the joint to release. Diversified adjustment will also restore the original biomechanical function of the spine, with benefits spanning throughout the body. Diversified adjustment has also become a suitable treatment for injuries in other body parts.

How do We Perform a Diversified Adjustment Treatment?

During the first chiropractic appointment, Dr. Brenner will perform a full-body assessment to determine the source of your back pain. Based on the results, the Chiropractor will develop a unique treatment plan to eliminate your spinal pain. Focusing on the areas of the spine that are particularly affected will lead to optimal results.

To perform the diversified adjustment technique, the chiropractor will often use a table to provide easy access to a specific section of the spine. Alternatively, he will place a block underneath the patient’s body, accentuating a particular section of the spine. Both of these techniques allow the chiropractor to focus on adjusting only the section or sections of the spine that require treatment, providing easy access. Diversified adjustment purposely does not involve any instruments, as the chiropractor can target the affected areas most accurately with his hands.

After properly positioning the patient’s spine, the Chiropractor will begin performing this treatment. The guiding principle behind a diversified adjustment treatment is that low amplitude, high-velocity thrusts will best restore the spine’s previous range of motion. In other words, short, quick thrusts will be able to relieve these spinal stresses. By using only his hands, Dr. Brenner can provide a thorough, effective and accurate treatment.

Restore Spinal Alignment with a Diversified Adjustment

Diversified adjustment does not simply “push” the spine back into place. Instead, the goal of the diversified adjustment technique is to enable the spine and connected joints to regain their full range of motion.

After restoring the spine’s full range of motion, the patient will experience substantial pain relief.

Chiropractic Adjustment: Treating Pain in Other Body Parts

Due to the spine’s central location within the body, it serves as a network for the brain to communicate with other body parts. Because of this, it’s common for pain in other parts of the body to cause spinal pain. For example, the leg pain caused by sciatica is generally related to herniated disks.

Chiropractic treatment will address this pain at its source, while also relieving the translated pain.

When to Receive a Chiropractic Adjustment

If you are suffering from back or neck pain as a result of spinal misalignment, then the Chiropractor will likely utilize a diversified adjustment approach.

For most patients, diversified adjustments will be one component of an overall chiropractic care strategy.
