Founded in 1895 by D.D. Palmer, Chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on disorders of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems. These disorders may have an effect on the overall health of the patient. The chiropractor will apply a simple, yet specific force to the vertebrae that are out of place in order to move the spine to proper alignment. These spinal adjustments fix subluxations (misalignments), allowing the nervous system to work properly. With the nervous system free of interference, the body has a better chance of healing itself naturally, without the use of medication or surgery. For over 100 years, Chiropractic care has been helping to keep humans functioning to their maximum potential, and here at Simply Well, our goal is just that: To help our patients reach their full individual potential.
Our chiropractor, Dr. Klinedinst uses the Thompson Drop Technique. This technique allows for a more gentle adjustment for the patient while also being kinder, less physically demanding to the chiropractor. At the same time the chiropractor applies a quick thrust, the section of the table will drop. The dropping of the table creates a knocking sound. With this technique, patients are adjusted while laying in a neutral position (either supine or prone positions) rather than being twisted and torqued, allowing the joints to move into alignment with less force and pressure.
