Through manual adjustments, chiropractors aim to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall health without the use of medication or surgery. By realigning the spine, chiropractic treatment can relieve pressure on nerves, promote better circulation, and facilitate the body's natural healing processes. Additionally, chiropractic care is known to address a wide range of conditions, including back pain, headaches, and even issues like digestive disorders and insomnia. With its emphasis on restoring balance within the body, chiropractic therapy not only provides relief from symptoms but also supports long-term wellness and improved quality of life for many individuals.

Types of Chiropractic Adjustments
Welcome to our comprehensive guide to chiropractic adjustments. At Kailua Wellness Center, we offer a variety of techniques to address your unique needs and preferences. Here's an overview of the different types of chiropractic adjustments we provide:
1. Diversified Chiropractic Technique
The diversified technique is one of the most commonly used chiropractic methods. It involves manual adjustments performed by hand to realign the spine and restore proper joint function. This technique is highly effective in treating a wide range of musculoskeletal issues.
2. Gonstead Chiropractic Technique
The Gonstead technique emphasizes precise adjustments targeting specific misalignments in the spine. It involves a thorough assessment of spinal health using X-rays and palpation to identify subluxations. This technique aims to provide targeted and effective adjustments for optimal results.
3. Chiropractic Activator Method
The activator method utilizes a handheld device called an activator to deliver gentle, low-force adjustments to the spine. This technique is particularly beneficial for patients who prefer a more gentle approach or those with sensitive areas.
4. Webster Chiropractic Technique
The Webster technique is specifically designed for pregnant women to address pelvic misalignments and optimize pelvic balance. By restoring proper alignment, this technique can help alleviate discomfort during pregnancy and facilitate easier labor and delivery.
5. Chiropractic Soft Tissue Mobilization
Soft tissue mobilization techniques involve applying pressure to muscles, ligaments, and tendons to release tension and improve flexibility. These techniques complement chiropractic adjustments by addressing surrounding soft tissues for comprehensive pain relief and improved function.
6. Chiropractic Graston Technique
The Graston technique utilizes specialized instruments to perform soft tissue mobilization and address scar tissue, adhesions, and fascial restrictions. This technique can help reduce inflammation, improve range of motion, and accelerate healing.
7. Chiropractic Cupping
Cupping therapy involves placing suction cups on the skin to create a vacuum effect, which helps release muscle tension, increase blood flow, and promote healing. In chiropractic care, cupping can be used as a complementary therapy to enhance the effectiveness of adjustments.
8. Chiropractic Massage
Chiropractic massage involves applying manual manipulation techniques to muscles, ligaments, and soft tissues to alleviate tension, reduce pain, and promote relaxation. Massage therapy can complement chiropractic adjustments by addressing muscular imbalances and promoting overall well-being.
9. Chiropractic Drop Table Method
The drop table method utilizes a specialized chiropractic table with sections that can be raised or lowered. During adjustments, specific segments of the table drop slightly, allowing for gentle and controlled adjustments to the spine.
10. Chiropractic Extremity Adjustments
In addition to spinal adjustments, chiropractors can also perform adjustments on extremities such as shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles. Extremity adjustments can help improve joint function, reduce pain, and enhance overall mobility.
11. Chiropractic Spinal Mobilization Techniques
Spinal mobilization techniques involve gentle stretching and mobilization of the spine to improve joint mobility, reduce stiffness, and alleviate pain. These techniques are suitable for patients who prefer a more gentle approach to adjustments.
12. Chiropractic Motion Palpation
Motion palpation is a diagnostic technique used by chiropractors to assess joint movement and identify areas of restriction or dysfunction. By evaluating the range of motion in various spinal segments, chiropractors can determine the most appropriate adjustments for each patient.
13. Chiropractic Spinal Decompression
