5 Common Chiropractic Techniques For Back and Neck Pain

5 Common Chiropractic Techniques For Back and Neck Pain

It's not uncommon for neck or back pain to interfere with work and daily activities. If you suffer from pain in your neck, back, or both, and it is diminishing your quality of life, there are natural treatment options available to relieve your pain. Here are five of the most common chiropractic techniques used at Chiropractic of Bellevue to help reduce back and neck pain.

Gonstead Technique

Using the hands, a chiropractor adjusts the lower back while you are lying on your side. This technique is primarily used to realign the joints in the body. It is also an effective way to reduce stiffness and increase mobility.

Soft Tissue Therapy

This type of therapeutic massage focuses on manipulating the muscles and ligaments in a kneading motion. Soft tissue therapy increases blood flow and circulation, rids the body of toxins, and helps the muscles to relax.

Graston Technique

The Graston Technique is also known as soft-tissue instrument-assisted mobilization. With this technique, our chiropractor uses a special hand-held instrument to massage the skin and help the injured soft tissue to heal. The instrument reduces adhesions in the muscles as well as loosen tight knots. Besides providing pain relief, the Graston Technique increases your range of motion.

Flexion-Distraction

This type of chiropractic treatment is also known as decompression manipulation, and it effectively treats herniated discs, scoliosis, and other conditions of the spine. The technique uses a specially designed table that provides a gentle stretching motion. Along with reducing pain, the flexion-distraction method pops joints back into place.

Thompson Technique 

The Thompson Technique is a chiropractic treatment that uses a padded table to drop when our chiropractor applies a controlled thrust to an adjustment. The dropping motion does not hurt, and it helps to relieve neck and back pain.
