The latest chiropractic techniques administered to promote normal motion and a better framework on which strengthening can occur.

Close your eyes and touch the tip of your nose. 

We are able to do this because we have receptors in every joint in our bodies relaying information to the brain about where the joint is in space and where it is moving. 

This is commonly termed “joint position sense” and is necessary for coordinated movement. 

Sometimes, either due to trauma or chronic postural problems, joints can get “fixated” or “stuck”, adversely affecting those receptor’s ability to coordinated movement. 

Mobilization and manipulation are techniques chiropractors use to free up those joint fixations and in doing so increases the joint position sense to the brain. 

This leads to a decrease in discomfort and increased coordination, which we then take advantage of by exercising the muscles related to the joint to increase the brains’ awareness of how and where that joint is moving.
