SPINAL MANIPULATION
Get rapid relief from your neck and back pain today with Spinal Manipulation done by our specially credentialed physios.
What is Spinal Manipulation?
Spinal manipulation is hands on technique that provides a quick stretch to the joints of the spine that in turn causes a crack or pop sound.
The sound you hear is actually a release of nitrogen gas. It takes 20 minutes after a joint has been cracked for that gas to build up again before you can manipulate the joint again.
When a joint is manipulated and the gas is released little receptors in the joint and tendon are stimulated which in turn causes the muscles overlying that area to relax for approximately 15 minutes.
During this time we hope that the muscles go back to restful state. It’s kind of like restarting your computer when it is not working properly.
Contrary to popular belief no joints actually go out or need to put back into place or are out of align. These are all myths.
