Chiropractic Adjustment
Chiropractic adjustment, also known as spinal manipulation, involves a safe, drug-free method of carefully adjusting/maneuvering a joint in the spine or extremities. The art form is truly thousands of years old with science fine tuning and validating its methods since the early 1900’s. There are many different forms of manipulation with tailoring to the specific needs and comforts of the patient a top priority. The non-invasive treatment rarely cause discomfort and any soreness associated with it is resolved within 12 to 24 hours. The ultimate goal of chiropractic adjustment is to reduce pain, increase range of motion and improve function in the body. The risk involved is extremely low and most patients experience quick relief following treatment. Chiropractic adjustments are also known for their benefits to long term wellness and preventative care.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal Decompression in the form of the Cox flexion/distraction technique relieves pressure on pinched nerves and discs of the spinal column. It is used to manage symptoms of chronic back pain derived from disc bulge, disc herniation, spinal stenosis, spinal arthritis (spondylosis), sciatica, and more. Spinal decompression is a safe, non-invasive procedure that gently relieves pressure to the spinal discs in order to alleviate pain, discomfort and improve range of motion.
Kinesio Taping®
The Kinesio Taping® Method is a definitive rehabilitative taping technique that is designed to facilitate the body’s natural healing process while providing support and stability to muscles and joints without restricting the body’s range of motion as well as providing extended soft tissue manipulation to prolong the benefits of manual therapy administered within the clinical setting. Latex-free and wearable for days at a time, Kinesio® Tex Tape is safe for populations ranging from pediatric to geriatric, and successfully treats a variety of orthopedic, neuromuscular, neurological and other medical conditions. The Kinesio® Taping Method is a therapeutic taping technique not only offering patients the support they are looking for, but also rehabilitating the affected area. By targeting different receptors within the somatosensory system, Kinesio® Tex Tape alleviates pain and facilitates lymphatic drainage by microscopically lifting the skin. This lifting affect forms convolutions in the skin thus increasing interstitial space and allowing for a decrease in inflammation of the affected areas. Kinesio Tape can be applied in hundreds of ways and has the ability to re-educate the neuromuscular system, reduce inflammation, prevent injury and promote good circulation and healing, and assist in returning the body to balance. This method can be used to treat rotator cuff injuries, golfers elbow, tennis elbow, Achilles tendinitis, whiplash, runners knee, and many other ailments.

Atlanta Spine Center (ASC) has developed specific programs that address musculoskeletal complaints which take into consideration biomechanics, strength, flexibility and balance. Integrating chiropractic care with specialized rehabilitation techniques as well as neuromuscular therapy is a natural choice for improving patient care. We consider a patient’s program successful once they feel comfortable with their pain level and can demonstrate increased range of motion, improved posture, with some control and direction in their own care.
Rehabilitative physical therapy combined with chiropractic care may be your best solution. Many types of chronic complaints and repetitive stress injuries are caused by awkward postures or structural deficit as a result of a posture habit or repeated movement patterns. As modern technology develops, our bodies pay a price for interacting with the world around us. Prolonged sitting at a computer, car accidents or industrial work related injuries are just some examples of the modern world taking its toll.
