Diversified Technique in Jersey

female chiropractor adjusting patient At The Wellness Centre (Castle Quay), one of the many adjustment styles we use is referred to as Diversified Technique. Among the most popular chiropractic techniques, this hands-on approach allows us to manually adjust your spinal joints to help them move and function normally.

The Diversified Technique can be successful in helping patients of all ages get back to living the life they love naturally.

What to Expect

Your Chiropractor will start by taking a thorough history of your problem and do a complete examination of your spine and its surrounding muscles.

Where dysfunctional joints are identified, a specific manual thrust is administered. The direction, speed, depth and angle of the thrust is determined by the specific joint dysfunction, and its application is the result of years of experience, clinical practice and a thorough understanding of spinal mechanics.
