A spinal adjustment is a precise, hands-on treatment applied to joints in the spine that have become restricted or misaligned. Using controlled, targeted force, your chiropractor restores proper movement to the affected vertebrae — reducing nerve irritation, relieving muscle tension, and allowing your body to function the way it should.
Most patients notice improvement quickly, often within the first few sessions. You may hear a popping sound during treatment — this is simply gas releasing from the joint, not bones cracking, and is completely normal. Adjustments are safe, gentle, and suitable for most ages and conditions.
