Chiropractic Treatment -- Diversified TechniqueThe Diversified Technique, also called Full-Spine Specific (FSS), is the most widely used of all the chiropractic treatments. This is the chiropractic technique developed by D.D. Palmer, DC, and serves as the cornerstone of the manipulation/ adjustment procedures taught at chiropractic schools. In this technique, the chiropractor uses manual adjustments to treat subluxations of the spine and joints. It involves high-velocity and low-amplitude thrusts which are often accompanied by a 'clicking' or 'popping' sound (cavitation). Some clients may find this 'popping' or 'clicking' a little un-nerving. In such cases the chiropractor (Dr. Collins) may then switch to one of the other equally effective techniques such as, activator method, Koren Specific technique, or laser therapy. This technique is popularly used in the adjustments of the extremity joints, and also in the treatment of sport injuries. For more information about this chiropractic treatment and our services, or if you have any questions, or would like to schedule an appointment with Dr. John Collins regarding your health, please call us at 403-243-0111.
