Our Techniques
Capitol Rehab offers a multi-faceted approach to Chiropractic Wellness. Our services are catered to your needs and include both Chiropractic and Rehabilitation Services.
At Capitol Rehab, we use both manual and instrument adjusting techniques as well phiso-therapy modalities and rehabilitation to restore and improve your health.
Analysis of the Spine
First, an analysis of the spine is performed. This can initially involve a case history and X-ray pictures of the spine.
Subsequent visits may include motion palpation, with the chiropractor feeling the spinal joints move as you turn and bend. Or, a leg check may be performed, to uncover an imbalance in the neck or lower spine.
With the malposition of one or more spinal bones identified, a specific manual thrust is administered. The direction, speed, depth and angle that are used is the result of experience, practice and a thorough understanding of spinal mechanics.
Chiropractic Adjustment Explained
The energy delivered during the thrust may produce a slight “popping” sound from shifting gas and fluids in the joint. This sound may be interesting, but has little meaning as to the value and effectiveness of the adjustment.
While improving spinal biomechanics can reduce nervous system interferences, virtually all joints of the body can be adjusted to help restore proper range of motion.
If you’ve been to a chiropractor before and prefer to be adjusted in a particular way, let Dr. Jack Ricci know. We want you to relax, enjoy and fully benefit from your chiropractic care.
I am looking forward to meeting you in person and discussing how we can help you get on the road to wellness. Give us a call today to schedule your appointment.
