What Is An Adjustment?

Spinal and extremity adjustments are a cornerstone of chiropractic care, designed to restore proper alignment and function to the body’s musculoskeletal system. These gentle procedures can effectively reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall well-being by addressing misalignments in the spine and joints.

How Does It Work?

Chiropractors use their hands to apply controlled pressure to specific areas of the spine or extremities. This helps to:

    • Restore joint mobility: Release restrictions that may be causing pain or discomfort.
    • Correct misalignments: Bring the spine and joints back into proper alignment, reducing stress on surrounding tissues.
    • Reduce nerve interference: Improve the flow of nerve signals, which can help alleviate pain and improve function.

How Many Adjustments Do I Need?

The number of adjustments required varies depending on the individual and the severity of the condition. Your chiropractor will develop a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs.

Testimonials from Our Valued Patients

Mary Lou P.

My insurance company seemed caring at first but quickly turned their back on me. They were actually trying to pay me a couple thousand dollars to “settle my case”, when I hadn’t even seen a doctor. Finally, I was referred to Dr.  Feeney and  I was given an appointment the same day! Dr. Feeney and his staff were wonderful! I could feel that I was in the right place almost immediately.

I was examined, including X-rays, and I was sent for 2 MRI’S. My injuries were explained, and I started a treatment program which was really great. I received regular evaluations and my treatment was modified. Dr. Feeney also referred me to an excellent medical specialist, and together they provided great care.

Additionally, I was also given a list of a few attorneys who were felt to be good matches for me. Now, I tell everyone I know who’s been injured in a car accident to see Dr. Feeney and Physician’s Plus!

I hurt my back at work, and I was told that I had to go to P.T., which I did. At P.T., I was given exercises to do, but they only seemed to make me worse. I was told that I had strained my back, and I needed to go back to work right away. When I went back to work, my pain started to go into my legs, and I just couldn’t do it anymore. I was told about Dr. Feeney and made an appointment at Physician’s Plus. After an evaluation, I was told that I was having weakness in my legs and sent for an MRI of my lower back, which showed 3 herniated discs (2 of which were determined to be from my injury).  I did see a spine surgeon, who told me to stick with Dr. Feeney and come back in 6 weeks if I wasn’t better. My treatment plan at Physician’s Plus was really great. I had a special type of lumbar traction called axial decompression as well as a certain type of high-powered laser, which quickly stopped my leg pain. I was also put on a great therapy program, in which the therapist worked with me one on one. I was told that it was extremely important to get my back stronger. My employer even commented that he liked the communication with Physician’s Plus and I’m sure they were happy that I didn’t need surgery. Thankfully, I am back to work today and doing well.
