What About Neck Adjustments?
Respecting that some patients have personal preferences regarding neck adjustments, our clinic offers alternatives. We do try to inform people that the Bone and Joint Decade 2000-2010 Task Force on Neck Pain and its Associated Disorders has released a report concluding that neck manipulation and mobilization are safe, effective, and appropriate treatments for people with Grade 2 neck pain (pain that limits daily activities). This report is the most authoritative report to date on neck pain and stands to influence healthcare systems internationally.

Although we are confident in the report's findings, our chiropractic clinic respects patient choices regarding neck adjustments, and offers non-forceful therapeutic alternatives to manual neck adjustments when such alternatives are indicated or requested. Patients may choose low force instrument (neuromechanical impulse) manipulation of the neck as an effective alternative to manual neck rotation. Patient requests to avoid the neck in treatment are respected.
