A chiropractic adjustment is a gentle, controlled movement applied to a joint to restore proper alignment, reduce pressure, and improve how your body moves and functions. When a joint becomes restricted, whether from posture, injury, stress, or muscle imbalance, it can create pain, inflammation, and limited range of motion.

An adjustment helps:

• Reduce nerve irritation

• Decrease muscle tension and inflammation

• Improve joint mobility

• Restore proper movement patterns

• Support better posture and biomechanics

• Enhance overall nervous system function

By improving how your spine and joints move, chiropractic care helps the body heal more efficiently and function the way it was designed to.

Conditions a Chiropractic Adjustment Can Help

Chiropractic adjustments can support recovery and relief for a wide range of musculoskeletal issues, including:

Spine & Nerve Pain

• Low back pain

• Neck pain

• Sciatica and nerve compression

• Herniated or bulging discs

• Chronic stiffness

• Limited range of motion in the neck or back

Jaw, Head & Upper Body

• TMJ dysfunction

• Headaches & migraines

• Shoulder pain

• Rib pain

• Mid-back tightness

Lower Body & Extremities

• Hip pain

• Knee pain

• Foot and ankle pain

• Toe pain (big toe restriction, turf toe, limited toe mobility)

• IT band tightness

• Piriformis syndrome

Sports & Functional Injuries

• Overuse injuries

• Movement restrictions

• Post-gym tightness

• Repetitive strain issues

• Postural imbalances

After-Adjustment Care: What to Expect

After your adjustment, it’s normal to experience:

• A sense of lightness, improved mobility, and better movement

• Mild soreness (similar to post-workout tenderness)

• Increased flexibility or range of motion

• Reduced tension in surrounding muscles

• Improved posture and easier movement patterns.

Consistent care helps retrain the body, reduce flare-ups, and create lasting structural and functional improvements.
