Techniques

Using many different chiropractic treatments, Dr. Neumann is able to reduce nervous system interference and allow the body to have the best chance of returning to complete health. After each chiropractic adjustment, most patients feel a sense of well-being and are pain free. Not every patient will experience every technique. Your chiropractic adjustment will be tailored to your body and concerns.

• Diversified – A classic technique taught in all chiropractic schools. Manual thrusts specifically realign the spine and joints. It may create a popping sound, which is just air releasing and not cause for any concern. It is a completely pain-free way to adjust.
• Gonstead – The ultimate standard in hands-on spinal adjustments. Another form of manual adjustment that realigns your body into a bio-mechanically correct position.
• Activator – The Activator is a small handheld tool used by many chiropractors to perform extremely precise adjustments. A gentle, spring-controlled force is an alternative to traditional manual methods.
• Webster’s Intra-Uterine Constraint – Commonly used with children and pregnant women, this technique focuses on the sacrum and SI joint. Many pregnant mothers come to us as a way to correct a breech position of their child. By releasing the pelvic muscles and ligaments, the child and mother are more comfortable.

Decompression Therapy

In nonsurgical spinal decompression therapy, the spine is stretched and relaxed intermittently in a controlled manner. The theory is that this process creates a negative intradiscal pressure (pressure within the disc itself), which is thought to have two potential benefits:

• Pulls the herniated or bulging disc material back into the disc.
• Promotes the passage of healing nutrients, into the disc and fosters a better healing environment.

Massage Therapy
Graston Certified provider

Procedure detects and treats areas of soft tissue lesions or adhesions in muscles, tendons and ligaments that can lead to pain and dysfunction. In the healing process, our body attempts to repair muscles, tendons and ligaments with "scar tissue," much like the scar that forms on the skin when you have scraped or banged your knee. Scar tissue tends to be weaker and less flexible than normal, healthy, undamaged tissue. Scar tissue limits range of motion and in many instances causes pain, which prevents the patient from functioning as they did before the injury.
