Gonstead Method in Keller
Our practice takes pride in using the Gonstead Method, an exact and scientifically based chiropractic technique that sets the standard for spinal analysis and adjustment. Dr. Johnny Nguyen and our team provide you with the most effective and tailored care to address the root cause of your discomfort, not just the symptoms.
What Makes Gonstead Different?
The Gonstead Method stands out for its thorough approach to spinal health. It goes beyond a basic assessment by using five specific criteria to detect spinal misalignments, also known as the vertebral subluxation complex:
- Visualization - We observe your posture and movement patterns for subtle changes that may reveal problem areas.
- Instrumentation - A tool called the Nervo-Scope® glides along your spine to detect heat differences that could signal nerve pressure or inflammation.
- Static Palpation - We gently feel along your spine to identify tenderness, swelling, or tightness in muscles and soft tissues.
- Motion Palpation - Your chiropractor checks how each spinal segment moves as you bend and twist, helping pinpoint areas with limited motion.
- X-Ray Analysis - Full-spine X-rays taken while you stand help us evaluate posture, disc and joint integrity, and misalignments, as well as rule out any underlying pathologies or recent fractures.
This method also recognizes the pelvis as the foundation of spinal health. Ensuring proper pelvic alignment creates a stable base for your entire spine. This approach can lead to improved posture, better balance, and a more efficient nervous system.
Focused and Targeted Adjustments
Our chiropractors focus on specific, targeted adjustments to correct spinal misalignments (subluxations). By addressing only the areas that need correction, we minimize unnecessary stress on your body while maximizing the effectiveness of each adjustment. This approach ensures long-term benefits and helps prevent future issues.
Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, recovering from an injury, or simply looking to improve your overall health, our chiropractors are here to help. We provide immediate relief and equip you with the knowledge and tools to maintain your spinal health for years to come.
