Cox Flexion Distraction Technique
Cox Flexion Distraction is a gentle, non-force adjustment procedure to help the spine heal naturally. The goal of Flexion Distraction is to provide decompression to the spine by applying gentle traction to the lower spine.
Diversified Chiropractic Technique
Diversified Chiropractic Technique is the most commonly used adjustment technique by chiropractors, as reported by the American Chiropractic Association. Diversified Chiropractic Technique is characterized by a high velocity low amplitude thrust. Diversified technique has three main objectives. These are to restore spinal alignment, repair joint dysfunction and enhance proper motion.

Spinal manipulation has both biomechanical and neurophysiological effects on the spine.

Therapeutic Exercises
Therapeutic exercises including stretching and releasing tight muscles and activating and strengthening inhibited or weak muscles is an important part of the treatment plan. Specific spinal stabilization exercises are important in helping to achieve maximum functional recovery and help in prevention of future episodes. Exercise is always important in helping patients reach their functional goals.
Neuromobilization
Neuromobilization is a technique to treat nerves that may be adhered, irritated or compressed. Many patients present with a chronic history of referred symptoms like pain, numbness or tingling into the arms or legs may respond to neuromobilization. All patients who present with radicular symptoms in the extremities will be evaluated with a complete neural dynamic exam. Neuromobilization techniques can also be patient generated movements to be performed at home.
