We use myofascial release techniques and transverse friction techniques (fancy words for deep muscle work). These are designed to help guarding muscles relax and helps to restore the natural rhythym of the muscles acting on any joint. We treat extremities (massage & adjusting) as well as the spine. Exercises are prescribed to support the corrections that are made and helps to prevent future problems.

Palmer, DC. and taught in all chiropractic colleges. Diversified Technique was refined and developed by the late Otto Reinert, DC, to address biomechanical failure in each section of the spine, as it relates to specific subluxation. The focus is on restoration to normal biomechanical function, and correction of subluxation. In addition, Diversified methods have been developed to adjust extremity joints, allowing for beneficial applications in treating sports injuries and other injuries. Diversified adjusting of the spine uses specific lines of drives for all manual thrusts, allowing for specificity in correcting mechanical distortions of the spine. X-rays and case histories are used in analysis and diagnosis. No instruments are used in the adjusting procedure. Motion palpatation and full spine, hands-on techniques are used to deliver a deeper thrust, which makes an osseous (popping) sound as the adjustment is given.   Clinic Hours        open  close  open  close      Sun  Closed      Mon  8:00 AM  Noon  2:00 PM  6:00 PM      Tue  By Appointment      Wed  8:00 AM  Noon  2:00 PM  6:00 PM      Thr  By Appointment  2:00 PM  6:00 PM      Fri  8:00 AM  Noon  Closed      Sat  Closed   M-W-F 8-12, M-W-Thurs 2-6 Driving Directions Half a block south of Sandy Blvd. on NE 47th Avenue.
