Our Chiropractic Techniques

Think of an adjustment as “tuning” a piano, adjusting each string so it produces the perfect tone.

We use a number of highly-effective adjusting approaches to help improve spinal biomechanics and reduce nervous system interference. The approach we use is based on our clinical judgment and years of experience.

The primary adjusting techniques we use include:

Diversified

After identifying which vertebrae have lost their normal motion or position, a specific manual thrust is applied to free up “stuck” spinal joints. read more»

Activator Methods®

This is a system of spinal evaluation combined with a handheld adjusting instrument that delivers a consistent, low-force thrust. read more»

Gonstead

This full spine approach relies on X-rays and a heat-sensing instrument for a thorough evaluation and documented results. read more»

SOT

Sacro Occipital Technique helps normalize the relationship between the pelvis and the head, using gravity to make the necessary correction. read more»

Torque Release

With a gentle touch and a light thrusting by hand or an instrument called an Integrator, the brain/body connection is enhanced. read more»

NUCCA- Upper Cervical

Relying on precise mathematical calculations, we deliver a specific and highly-controlled contact to the upper bone of your spine. read more»

Certified Webster Method

Cox Flexion-Distraction

If you’ve been to a chiropractor before and prefer to be adjusted in a particular way, let Dr. James Hinsch know. We want you to relax, enjoy and fully benefit from your chiropractic care.
