Chiropractic manipulation is most commonly applied to the spine but is also effective in improving mobility and alleviating pain in all joints throughout the body.

Chiropractic manipulation is a safe non-invasive procedure that utilizes the doctor’s hands to mobilize a targeted joint. The manipulation uses a high-velocity, low-amplitude thrust over restricted joints. The cavitation (the “pop”) that may be heard is due to the release of gas (mostly nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide) in the joints.

Manipulation can be applied to the following joints:

  • Spine

  • Ears

  • Shoulder/clavicle

  • Elbow

  • Wrist

  • Hip

  • Knee/Ankle/foot

  • Ribs 

  • Temporomandibular joint (TMJ)

Dr. Hales explains how chiropractic manipulation is a fast and painless approach to address one’s pain.
