About This Service

Joint adjustments involve high-velocity, low-amplitude (HVLA) thrusts applied to specific spinal or peripheral joints to restore normal joint mechanics. Our trained physical therapists are qualified to perform adjustments as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation plan.

Adjustments are particularly effective for joint restrictions that cause pain and limit movement — such as cervical (neck) stiffness, thoracic back pain, or lumbar stiffness. The characteristic popping sound you may hear is gas being released from the joint, which is harmless.

Unlike chiropractic adjustments alone, our approach integrates manipulation with therapeutic exercise and soft tissue work for lasting results rather than temporary relief.
