Fix Care Stages

Stage 1-Initial Visit:

After completing a thorough functional examination, postural and x-ray analysis is performed. This is a critical component to the initial patient visit and is vital to determine if the patient is a candidate for care at Dynamic Chiros.

Stage 2 - Adjustment

These are types of adjustments in which a patient is stressed in a position that has lost its’ normal motion and a force is applied (to restore motion) to the spine or pelvis. This is sometimes aided with help of a drop table or chiropractic instruments.  This is unique to the adjustments provided at Dynamic Chiros and differs from treatments received at physical therapy treatments.  Physical therapy focuses on mobilization, which can improve joint flexibility, while the adjustments provided at Dynamic Chiros focus on correction of aberrant joint motion; these adjustments are designed to permanently change spinal position, posture, and restore biomechanical function.

Stage 3 – Exercise and Traction:

Because ligaments and muscles actually change shape as a result of poor posture and alignment, corrective adjustments always within the tolerance of each individual patient are crucial to make long-term, positive changes. Unlike medical traction, which only pulls apart joints to provide brief relief of symptoms, our specific form of chiropractic biomechanical traction involves applying a sustained force to the spine in order to restore normal spinal alignment and motion. Much like an orthodontist applies braces to correct crooked teeth, the chiropractors at Dynamic Chiros prescribe traction in order to move the spine to a more normal position over time.
