01About the technique

What is a chiropractic adjustment?

A chiropractic adjustment, also called spinal manipulation, is a precise, controlled movement applied to the joints of the body. Its goal is to restore normal motion to joints that have become restricted, fixated, or misaligned.

By carefully applying a specific force to the right area, an adjustment can improve mobility, ease pain, and support your body’s own ability to heal. The spine sits at the center of this: it holds you upright and protects the nervous system that coordinates nearly everything your body does.

When the spine moves freely and without restriction, the whole system works better. That’s the foundation of the personalized, hands-on care we’ve offered Lafayette families since 1974.
