Diversified Chiropractic Technique

Diversified Chiropractic in Haywards Heath

Chiropractic treatment involves manual treatment and gentle manipulation of the spine and musculoskeletal system. It alleviates pain and treats the cause of the problem, not just the effect. 

Much in the same way that a mechanic has different tools to do different jobs, a Chiropractor that uses diversified techniques uses different adjustment techniques to adapt to different patients. This also means using various skeletal adjustments. The diversified technique is a full spine adjustment, as the body is treated as a whole.

Chiropractors are trained in using manipulation to free up restricted joints. This is often referred to as ‘making an adjustment’. Manipulation involves your chiropractor using their hands to apply quick, precise thrusts to the restricted joints. During manipulation, you may hear popping sounds (similar to when people flex their knuckles). This is quite harmless. It is just the sound of gas bubbles popping in the fluid of the joints as pressure is released.

Self-help advise and rehabilitation form an important part of the chiropractic approach to health. You will be given advice on how to manage your condition and prevent it from recurring. This may involve the application of ice or heat to reduce pain and inflammation, and advice on activity, posture and exercises you can do at home.
