Science Efficacy Technique Safety

Your body is an amazing self-healing organism.

Our technique and your health is based on four very important principles:
Your body is an amazing self-healing organism.

It is designed to heal itself! Your body is in a constant state of change and repair. Did you know that you create new body parts from scratch every second of every day throughout your lifetime?

You are able to accomplish this because your brain – your body's master controller - is the 'thing that runs this program. It is like a computer central command center that runs you. As long as your nervous system is able to communicate effectively with every organ, tissue, cell, nook and cranny of you, you should have the very best health you have ever had in your life. We call this normal.

If something interferes with the function of your nervous system so that it is not able to control your body the way it should, your body will not be able to do what it is designed and programmed to do, it will do its own thing, and here is where all your problems come from.

A chiropractor restores law and order!
We want your body to function the way it was designed and programmed. Doctors of chiropractic acknowledge your body's infinite healing potential from the inside-out, applying gentle yet powerful spinal adjustments to remove this interference to the system that controls healing, thereby allowing you to do what you are designed to do: HEAL!

Technique

Webster Technique
This technique involves a specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment for correcting subluxations in a pregnant woman. It returns neuro-biomechanical function which relaxes the mother's pelvic muscles and ligaments, providing the physiological environment necessary for normal baby positioning.

What does this mean for you?
Utilizing this technique during all trimesters of pregnancy is optimum for baby positioning and growth and is much needed in the last trimester when there is little room for the infant inside mom.

Our doctors have taken 100's of additional hours to care for the pregnant mommas that they see. They are Webster Technique Certified through the International Chiropractic Pediatrics Association and teach other providers internationally/nationwide the proper utilization for success.

Adjusting Children
Specially designed headpieces are used to adjust children in the safest possible way, according to the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. Approved headpieces allow for extremely specific adjustments with no cervical (neck) rotation involved.

Tiny humans need tiny specific adjustments (not adult sized movements). Consider the pressure of your finger on your eyeball, or checking for the ripeness of a tomato.

Our doctors are CERTIFIED for the specialized care of pregnancy, birth, infancy and throughout the childhood process. Certification is by the Academy Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics (CACCP)

One size does not fit all and our doctors have taken and also teach this additional training to other providers.

Thompson Drop
This is a precision adjusting table with a weighing mechanism which adds only enough tension to hold the patient in the "up" position before the adjustment is given.

Cranial/Sacral (SOT)
The evaluation and light touch adjustment of the spine and cranium of infants and children to remove the subluxation patterns before they can cause irreversible neurological, functional or structural issues.

This technique is very beneficial for the pediatric population who have a tongue tie or had a tongue tie revision to assure proper jaw motion while feeding.

Logan Basic
Logan Basic is one of the lowest-force adjustive techniques. The Logan Basic Technique is a system of body mechanics with special emphasis on pelvic and spinal distortions and the subluxations that affect spinal structures. Logan Basic Technique is a light force, full-spine adjusting procedure highlighting the correction of spinal and pelvic pathobiomechanics.

Palmer Package
This is a group of chiropractic techniques that, once mastered, provide the Palmer College graduate with the technique expertise needed to deal with practically any clinical situation that may emerge in practice.

Safety

Chiropractic is one of the safest healing arts ever studied.

A multitude of studies have been performed to show that spinal adjustments, when performed by doctors of chiropractic, are so rarely – if ever – associated with side effects.

When performing an adjustment on a child, certified, skilled and experienced chiropractors like those at Prime Family Chiropractic Centers need only use a minimal amount of force, analogous to the pressure used to check the skin of a ripe tomato, and can even be performed while the child is sleeping!

Even when performed on adults and our pregnant population chiropractic adjustments are gentle, comfortable and extremely safe.
