One Size Doesn't Fit All!

You may have noticed that from one visit to the next, your adjustments all seem the same. "Seem" is the key word!

To those without a chiropractic degree and professional experience, the timing, angle, force and intent may appear to be the same on each visit. Even more inaccurate is the assumption that all practice members are adjusted in the same way.

Not true!

Every chiropractor works a little differently, but there are many tools available to assist in an evaluation of your spine on each visit. These tools may include skin temperature readings along your spine, leg length measurements, posture, range of motion or even a high-tech tool called surface electromyograph. These and other objective measurements, combined with years of training and experience determine the care you receive on each visit.

That's just the start. Your care is also based on a highly-refined sense of touch. "Feeling with the hands" by gently pressing on muscles and spinal joints is called palpation. This form of ultra-sensitive touch provides volumes of information about joint stability, function and the approach that should be used. Nothing, not even an observant spouse or friend who accompanies you on your visit, can substitute for this special form of experience.

Your care is unique and your adjustments are tailored specifically to your individual needs. Your adjustments are unlike anyone else's. That's just one reason why we think you're so special!

Of course. When developing a care plan, we consider the unique circumstances of each practice member. There are many ways we can adjust the spine. The chiropractic method we select will be best suited to your age, size and unique situation.
What is the purpose of pain?
Pain prompts many Corona del Mar folks to begin chiropractic care. But pain isn't the problem! Pain is just how your body alerts you that a limit has been reached (or exceeded), that something isn't working right and that some type of change is needed. As a chiropractor, my job is finding the underlying cause and recommending the changes needed to bring your body back into balance.
