Your chiropractor will choose the most appropriate approach based on your symptoms, examination findings, age, overall health and treatment goals. In many cases, your care may involve a combination of techniques to achieve the best possible outcome.
Chiropractic techniques tailored to you
Gonstead Technique
The Gonstead Technique is recognised for its detailed assessment and precise adjustments. Following a thorough examination, treatment focuses on restoring normal movement to specific joints that have been identified as contributing to your symptoms.
This highly targeted approach aims to improve spinal function, reduce pain and help your body move more naturally.
Diversified Technique
Diversified is one of the most widely used chiropractic techniques and focuses on restoring normal movement throughout the spine and other joints.
Using gentle, controlled adjustments, it helps improve mobility, reduce joint restriction and support the body’s natural ability to function without pain.
Activator Method
The Activator Method uses a specialised handheld instrument to deliver a precise, low-force impulse to targeted joints.
It’s an excellent option for patients who require a gentler approach, including older adults, those with acute pain or patients who prefer instrument-assisted treatment.
Thompson Drop Technique
The Thompson Drop Technique uses a specially designed chiropractic table with individual sections that gently drop during an adjustment, allowing precise treatment with less force.
This controlled approach helps improve joint movement, reduce stiffness and relieve discomfort while providing a comfortable, gentle form of chiropractic care.
