Chiropractic has long been used for pain. It’s much much more than that and research is now showing that it’s the impact on brain function that changes both symptoms and function for people with the chiropractic adjustment. Check out more on our video gallery…

Dr. Pip uses several techniques in the office. The traditional manual adjustment where you hear the sound of the adjustment or the table moves is a favorite for many people and utilizes motion to influence the nervous system. Other people prefer a lighter technique, she also uses a technique called SOT (Sacro Occipital Technique) which is a gentle tonal technique she weaves into most adjustments which uses a lot of cranial (head) work as well as gentle slower adjustments to foster change.  This technique is very gentle and utilizes a lot of cranial (head) adjusting. In addition she will use other tonal or “light touch” techniques as required. Dr. Pip is a lifetime learner and is currently learning KST (Koren Specific Technique) which uses a gentle instrument to deliver the adjustment.  In short, Dr. Pip works with you to find the technique that has the greatest change and you feel the most comfortable with.
