First a detailed analysis of the spine is done to find the specific vertebral dysfunction. This is followed by a very careful, precise, and specific correction of the spinal subluxation. Treatment is never a generalized, generic mobilization of vertebrae.

 1.    Palpation. Feeling and comparing the deeper musculature, and joints, and superficial texture of the skin over the spine for the swelling, heat or hydration associated with inflammation.

2.    Motion palpation. Feeling and comparing how each level of the spine moves, finding lack or excessive movement a vertebra in relation to neighboring vertebrae.

3.    Instrument Assessment. Instrumentation to detect abnormal temperature patterns over the spine, associated with inflammation, abnormal blood flow, or metabolism. 

4.    Visualization. Observing postural imbalance, gait problems, poor symmetry or range of motion, skin discoloration/texture.

Your care is specific to the conditions found. It is based on your prior history, your findings (above) and the nature of your complaints. The goal of your treatment is to correct your spinal dysfunction, improve nerve function, and the function of your body. As the above physical signs are noted to improve and your problem improves, the doctor's job is finished. This is the only method treatment that can predictably lead to a correction of the spine's function, with a healthy resolution of your complaints. 

In many cases the source of your back pain or hip pain may come from a single or from multiple disc alignment problems, and may cause leg pain or sciatica. Neck pain or mid- back/ scapular pain can present with headaches, dizziness, migraines, or arm pain.
