Extremity Adjusting

In this procedure the doctor is able to assess how well the major joints of your body are functioning. Those joints include your TMJ (jaw), shoulder, elbow, wrist, hands, hip, knees and feet joints. The doctor will adjust those joints, much like they adjust your spine, using either their hands or using the activator instrument. Extremity adjusting is highly effective for such conditions as TMJ, frozen shoulder, bursitis of the shoulder, Tennis elbow, Golfers elbow, elbow tendinitis, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, hip and knee arthritis and foot pain associated with plantar fascitis.

Your doctor will know the best adjusting technique to use for you, to insure that you get the most effective and comfortable adjustment possible.

Dr. Ann Asks some important questions of interest to Rockwall residents - Chiropractor Rockwall Dr. Ann Asks...

Where do most Rockwall residents get their first subluxation?
Being born in a hospital is a common source of subluxation. Trauma from forceps delivery has been replaced with drugs, vacuum extraction, Cesarean section and births that are "scheduled" to fit the workweek routines of Ob-Gyns. That's why we recommend a chiropractic checkup for every Rockwall newborn.
Why are frequent visits advised when starting chiropractic care?
Consistent visits at the beginning of your chiropractic care help create the momentum necessary to correct and retrain unhealthy spinal patterns. Later, Rockwall patients find that continued care on a less frequent visit schedule can help preserve their progress and avoid a relapse.
