First, a Chiropractor wants to be specific in knowing exactly which segments of your Spine and pelvis are stuck out of alignment. This information is obtained through a through exam and x-rays. Then the Chiropractor usually using Chiropractic Adjustments to free up the joint that is stuck out of alignment. These Adjustments are done either by hand or with a Chiropractic Adjustment Instrument. Also, traction, electric stimulation, ultrasound and muscle relaxation work and exercises can be used too.
Depending on the chiropractor’s specialty, there are multiple techniques multiple treatments that can restore the bodies pain-free range of motion without the use of pharmaceuticals, injections, or surgery
Adjustments and other modalities.
There are many treatments to be used.
Hello, There are literally hundred's of " technique's " to treat the spine for various condition's. Many " Technique's " that are taught in all Chiropractic School's. Every School had thier " Founder's " whom attended " Palmer School of Chiropractic ". Now known as Palmer College of Chiropractic. It has alway's been the " Harvard/ Mayo Clinic " of Chiropractic. Yes, I am a Graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic. Do I know exceptional Doctor's of Chiropractic from other School's.... Most certainly @! A Chiropractor who has spent hundred's of hour's learning non- taught excellent techniques outside of thier School's are the most excellent Chiropractor's. Please excuse some of the absurd " Quack like a Duck " seen on Tic-Toc or Facebook make many of us, " Sick to our stomachs "@!!!! Ask around Church, Gym's, Medical Doctor's, Nurse's ect. who they would recommend. That is the best way to find a Chiropractor who is highly reputable. I wish you well.
The methods are so many.
Most important find a chiropractor who is:

1) going to spend at least 45 minutes each session.

2) staying away from chiropractors who will ask you to buy a package deal of 10 visits in advance.

And you will be most likely fine
Every Chiropractor practices a bit differently. In fact there are over 300 chiropractic techniques that can be used to fix your spine. My biased input is that you should find someone who uses a gentler, more specific approach as opposed to a more hands traditional approach.
