Can I Adjust Myself?

Since a chiropractic adjustment is a specific force, applied in a specific manner to a specific joint, it is virtually impossible to adjust oneself.

It is possible to turn or bend or twist in certain ways to create a "popping" noise like the sound that sometimes accompanies a chiropractic adjustment.  Unfortunately, this type of joint manipulation is usually counterproductive by making an already unstable area of the spine even  more unsteady and hyper mobile.

The best way to experience the healthful benefits of  chiropractic care is to visit your chiropractor!
