What a Chiropractic Adjustment is Actually Like | Chiropractor for Low Back Pain in Lubbock, TX
Hello, it’s Dr. Greg Murray here at One Spine Chiropractic. Today we’re going to be talking about lower back pain.
The number one, cause of lower back pain is subluxation and we have three different manners that we use to treat subluxation. Subluxation means there’s a bone misaligned, putting pressure causing some pain. So what we do is we get that bone back in place to relieve the pain with that joint moving properly.
Activator Technique
So one technique we use is called the activator technique, this activator technique, we find the bonus misaligned, in what we do is get that position to the bone with the tool right on there, and we click therefore that bone gets back in place. And that’s a lot less invasive technique we use here.
Thompson Technique
The second technique is a Thompson technique. Thompson technique allows us to use this table to get really specific on that bone, getting it back in place by using a shearing motion in that bone. Okay, so what we do, same thing goes we find the bone that’s misaligned, we engage the table, push, engage this table
good. So that’s the second technique we use.
Diversified Technique
Third technique is probably will use most 80% of the time is diversified technique. This is a more hands on approach where we get our hands on the spine and get that good feeling. So I’m going to have the patient lay on her side. And what we’re gonna do is get that contact point right in the bone that is misaligned. And boom, bones back in place! These are the three techniques we use for subluxation and get ready for our patients.
