What is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is a health care discipline which emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs and surgery.  This natural approach looks first to the
spine and other joints in the body for dysfunction, which may lead to various physical
conditions. As chiropractors, we focus on locating and removing subluxations, or fixations in
the joints of the body.

At Fusion Chiropractic & Wellness, we use many specialized techniques to treat subluxations. The most utilized technique involves a manual “adjustment.”  During an adjustment, we
apply a quick and gentle stretching of the affected joint. The patient may hear a popping noise.
These audibles are simply pockets of air being released from the joint.  Following the
adjustment, the patient typically experiences a decrease in pain, increased range
of motion, and an overall feeling of relaxation. We are also trained in and offer several other
adjusting techniques to insure the patient’s comfort and satisfaction.  In addition, we also
specialize in various soft tissue techniques, nutritional counseling, physical therapies,
rehabilitative exercise, and lifestyle modification programs.
