What Is a Chiropractic Adjustment?

A chiropractic adjustment, also known as spinal manipulation, is a skilled and controlled procedure designed to restore normal joint movement and spinal alignment. Misalignments in the spine—called subluxations—can cause nerve irritation, muscle tension, and dysfunction throughout the body. Using hands or a specialised instrument, we gently reposition specific joints to their proper alignment.

• Reduces pain and inflammation at the source
• Improves nerve communication for whole-body wellness
• Enhances flexibility and range of motion in the affected area
• May provide long-term relief without reliance on medication

Types of Chiropractic Adjustment Techniques at Portland Chiropractic

• Diversified Technique:
  • Traditional hands-on adjustment widely used for spinal and extremity conditions
  • Often combined with soft tissue therapy
• Activator Method:
  • Gentle, instrument-assisted approach—perfect for sensitive, elderly, or pediatric patients
• Drop Table Technique:
  • Special table sections drop slightly to assist with low-force adjustments, enhancing comfort and effectiveness
• Extremity Adjusting:
  • Addresses joints outside the spine (shoulders, knees, ankles, wrists)—ideal for athletic injuries or repetitive strain issues

How Does Chiropractic Adjustment Differ From Other Local Providers?

• Personalised Treatment: Every adjustment is tailored to you. Unlike some clinics that use standard protocols, we base your care on thorough initial assessments (learn more on our Examination page).
• Modern Techniques: Our range includes traditional, instrument-based, and table-assisted adjustments—far beyond the industry standard.
• Full-Body Approach: We view spinal care holistically, supporting ongoing health with nutritional, posture, and ergonomic advice.
• Safety Assured: The adjustment is always matched to your clinical status and preferences. Side effects are usually mild and short-lived—slight soreness is expected, much like exercise recovery.
• One-Stop Clinic: With advanced imaging, supportive therapies, and rehabilitation all in-house, you receive seamless, coordinated care.

Many other clinics offer only basic spinal manipulation or push for lengthy contracts. At Portland Chiropractic, we value transparency—you get clear, honest advice about the likely benefits and options for adjunctive care, including IV Ozone Therapy or SoftWave Shock Therapy if appropriate.

The Benefits of Chiropractic Adjustment in Burntwood

• Drug-Free & Non-Invasive: Avoid the side effects of long-term medication or surgery
• Rapid Pain Reduction: Many patients feel noticeable relief after the first few visits
• Enhanced Mobility: Regain full function for work, play, and daily life
• Better Sleep & Less Stress: Chronic pain often leads to disturbed sleep and tension, both improved as your alignment and discomfort resolve
• Supports Long-Term Wellbeing: With continued care, many clients notice improved energy, mood, and resilience against future problems

“I’ve tried everything else and nothing worked!”—That’s a common story at Portland Chiropractic. Chiropractic adjustment is often effective even for those who have had little success with physiotherapy, medication, or massage alone.

Who Can Benefit from Chiropractic Adjustments?

• Individuals with back, neck, or joint pain—acute or chronic
• People experiencing muscle stiffness, poor flexibility, or tension headaches
• Patients with sciatica, nerve pain, or disc-related concerns
• Active individuals with sports injuries or postural challenges
• Seniors looking to promote healthy, pain-free aging
• Children and adolescents with alignment issues or discomfort

Typical Chiropractic Adjustment Session – What to Expect

• Initial Consultation: We collect your case history and understand your goals
• Assessment:
  • Physical examination and tests to identify the source of your symptoms
  • If needed, in-house X-rays for clarity
• Treatment:
  • Your chiropractor explains the planned adjustment, answers your questions, and ensures your comfort
  • Adjustment is then performed—may be accompanied by soft tissue therapy or adjunctive care (such as Trigger Point Therapy)
• Aftercare:
  • Post-treatment guidance, rehabilitation exercises, and helpful advice on posture or workstation ergonomics
  • Scheduling of future sessions, if ongoing care is advised

Maintenance Tips: Maximising the Results of Your Chiropractic Adjustment

• Follow Prescribed Exercises: Gentle stretching and strengthening help maintain realignment and prevent recurrence
• Hydrate Well: Good hydration supports tissue healing and flexibility
• Practice Good Posture:
  • Set up your workspace ergonomically
  • Take regular breaks to move throughout the day
• Act Early: Address any new aches or restrictions sooner rather than later to prevent chronic issues
• Consider Combined Care: For stubborn pain, explore adjuncts like Hyaluronic Injections for joint lubrication or Prolozone Therapy for tissue repair

Regular maintenance visits—not just when pain strikes—can support optimal spinal health and resilience against future injuries.
