What is a structural shift of the spine?

Get to Know the Basics

Before we get into our focus, we want to be clear on what the conventional chiropractor is attempting to accomplish with their care. Typically they try to:

  • Increase range of motion
  • Reduce muscular spasm
  • Temporary relieve pain

In our opinion those are some EXCELLENT goals and most chiropractors are great at obtaining them, but we are unique…

At Structural Chiropractic our objective and our focus is Structural Correction of the spine.

Most of the cases that we see in our office, which are commonly by referral from other local chiropractors and medical doctors, are for the correction of significant Structural Shifts of the spine. The presence of one or more Structural Shifts of the spine is typically the underlying cause of many “symptoms”— or what Structural doctors refer to as Secondary Conditions. Structural Correction focuses on the underlying cause- the Structural Shift.

During our consultation we will go into detail about what will occur in a Structural Correction treatment plan, how we will integrate Structural Correction Exercises, and how a few complementary recommendations will help you restructure your spine so that you can be healthier than you were when you walked in our door. We will explain how a Structural Shift (if found) could be causing your condition and even how we will detect it during our Structural Correction Examination.

First thing we want to address is that we will never schedule you for an examination before first having gone through one of our complimentary consultations.  We do this as a courtesy to you so that we can learn about you and so that you can determine if we are the right solution for you. After a consultation, we will always be willing to go straight into a Structural Correction Examination if you are ready, or schedule an examination for a later date if you so desire.  It is your choice!

A Structural Correction Examination is a comprehensive exam that will take no less than 45 minutes to complete depending on the severity of your case.

Knowing all of your options are important…

While we will never claim to speak on the behalf of other professions or chiropractors, we will do our best to explain your options as it relates to your care.  Our goal is to teach you about your options so that you can make the best decision for YOU and YOUR health.

Not only will we explain our care plan, but we will explore how other chiropractors and other medical professionals could approach your unique case.  To us it is very important that you are aware of all of your options so that when you make your decision to start care (with whoever it may be) that you can confidently count on us to be an objective health and wellness resource.

We are always open to calls from you or family members about health related issues. Our goal is to be THE community resource for health and wellness.  It does not matter to us whether someone is under our care or not, but more importantly that they can rely on us as a resource. We are very good at what we do and we serve a lot of people, but we don’t have an ego and we are never too busy to help.
