Chiropractic Adjustments

Chiropractic adjustments are the foundation of chiropractic care. Here’s how it works: your spine protects your nervous system, which controls everything in your body. When your spine is out of alignment, it affects how your nervous system communicates with your muscles, organs, and brain. This can lead to pain, stiffness, and reduced function.
Dr. Duren uses gentle, precise techniques to restore proper spinal alignment. Think of it like tuning a piano—when the strings are in tune, the music sounds right. When your spine is aligned, your nervous system works better, your body moves more freely, and your natural healing processes function as they should. Whether you’re dealing with back pain, neck pain, headaches, or just want to feel your best, chiropractic adjustments help restore that balance.

we start by listening
01
Dr. Duren begins by understanding your story—your health history, what’s bothering you now, and what you want to achieve. She’ll examine your spine alignment and check how your body moves. This helps her understand not just where the problem is, but why it’s happening.

Using gentle, controlled techniques, Dr. Duren restores proper spinal alignment. You might hear a small popping sound—that’s just gas releasing from the joint, like cracking your knuckles. The adjustment itself is comfortable and tailored to what your body needs.

03
After an adjustment, your nervous system can communicate better with the rest of your body. This helps your natural healing processes work more effectively. Dr. Duren monitors your progress and adjusts your care plan as you improve. Some people need regular care initially, while others come in less frequently for maintenance.
