Our Chiropractic Techniques

At The Chiropractic Centre Wilton we use a number of highly-effective adjusting approaches to help improve spinal biomechanics, joint mechanics, and improve muscle tone. Your chiropractor David Morley will select an approach based on his clinical judgement and years of experience. He will take into account your current condition, age, anxiety levels etc. Please remember we are here to help you and will choose a technique suited to you as an individual. We have range of techniques and treatments that we use and David Morley is happy to discuss the technique you prefer.

The primary adjusting techniques we use include:

Diversified

After identifying which vertebrae have lost their normal motion or position, a specific manual thrust is applied to free up ‘Stiff’ spinal joints. Read more

---

Blocking Technique

We use a special angled ‘wedge shaped' blocks so we can traction your spine, opening up the spacing between spinal vertebrae and relieving pressure to spinal joints. Read more

---

Activator Methods®

This system of spinal evaluation combines a handheld adjusting instrument that delivers a consistent, low-force thrust. Favoured by our more anxious patients who don’t like the idea of the ‘popping’ or clicking sound associated with the Diversified technique. Read more
