Manipulation
Spinal adjustments involve the physician applying controlled force on vertebrae or joints that have abnormal range of motion. The chiropractor will position the patient for easy access to the affected area and gently twist or thrust the bones back into proper alignment. In many cases, the adjustment will result in an audible pop or crack, which is the sound of gas being released from relieved joint pressure.
