THOMPSON
The Thompson Chiropractic Technique, also known as the Thompson Drop Table technique, is a chiropractic method developed by Dr. J. Clay Thompson that uses a specialized segmented table to assist in adjusting the spine. It involves a low-force, high-velocity thrust applied to a specific area of the spine, which is supported by a drop piece on the table. This drop mechanism allows for a more comfortable and effective adjustment by reducing the amount of force needed from the chiropractor.
DIVERSIFIED
The Diversified Technique is a widely used hands-on approach in chiropractic care that focuses on correcting spinal misalignments (subluxations) and restoring proper joint movement. It involves specific, controlled thrusts with the hands to address joint dysfunction and improve overall musculoskeletal health.
COX/FLEXION-DISTRACTION
The Cox flexion distraction technique is a chiropractic method that uses a specialized table to gently stretch and move the spine, aiming to relieve pain and improve mobility. It's a non-surgical, hands-on approach developed by Dr. James M. Cox, and it's often used to address lower back pain, neck pain, and other spinal issues.
SACRO-OCCIPTIAL TECHNIQUE
Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) is a chiropractic method focused on the relationship between the sacrum (base of the spine) and the occiput (base of the skull). It aims to normalize this relationship, which is believed to be crucial for the proper functioning of the brain and spinal cord. SOT utilizes specialized blocks to address imbalances and restore proper alignment, particularly in the pelvis, and also involves cranial sacral techniques.
