The Diversified Technique

is one of the most popular manual adjustment techniques, and it allows your doctor to use her hands to align the vertebrae of the spine.

the Thompson Technique

allows for a full spinal adjustment while laying comfortably face down on a table. We especially like this method of analysis and adjusting to address the patient’s pelvis.

the Activator Method

This is wonderful for children, patients who may be nervous, and the elderly population. We also have a Pro-ArthoStim® instrument, which many patients affectionately call the ‘woodpecker’ due to its sound and varying amplitude.

THE WEBSTER TECHNIQUE

Ideal for pregnant mothers. This gentle technique focuses on the very last bone in the spine, the sacrum. Adjusting the pregnant mother’s pelvis, in addition to addressing tight muscles/ligaments, allows for her growing baby to have the best start in life possible!

Pediatric Specific Techniques - Gentle and specific techniques tailored to the growing and developing spines of your little ones.

EXTREMITY ADJUSTMENTS

In addition to her passion for pediatric and perinatal care, Dr. Rebecca loves addressing patient’s extremities via Extremity Adjusting. This technique is ideal for any patient, but can be especially helpful for children who are prone to injuries.

Though the above techniques are our favorites, Dr. Rebecca & Dr. Amelia will also utilize the Gonstead and Toggle techniques from time to time, depending on what is best for that particular patient!

 State of the art scans

At North Sky Chiropractic we utilize an advanced chiropractic technology that scans and measures your response to stress throughout your body’s spine and nervous system. Starting from infancy and even throughout pregnancy we are able to safely test instead of guess on the best way to use chiropractic care to support you and your needs.
