Taking an unique approach to Sports Chiropractic care in Lincoln
At LCSM we believe that in order for the body to function optimally it needs to move well. With that being said improper joint motion or dysfunction of a joint can cause the surrounding structures (muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia) to lack optimal performance leading to pain and injury.
Our clinicians use a variety of techniques to perform adjustments, including manual manipulation, instrument-assisted manipulation, and gentle mobilization. The goal of these techniques is to restore proper joint function, therefore reducing pain and inflammation, and improving overall health and wellness. It has been shown that using these non-invasive treatments can decrease the need for medical interventions such as medication and surgery.
How Chiropractic Adjustments Work
The chiropractic adjustment refers to a technique that is designed to put movement in a joint that is fixated. The doctor uses this to help restore normal function and motion in a joint. Through a gentle and quick force, chiropractic adjustments can restore that movement in the joints and increase the neurological input to the body
Although there are many chiropractic adjustment techniques, the most common technique involves a professionally controlled and fast directional thrust manually into the joint. This thrust pushes the joint beyond its current range of motion to resolve the underlying issues. An audible release due to joint cavitation (the release of gas from the sudden decrease in pressure) often follows the manipulation.
