You don't have to lay down in a prone position to get a terrific chiropractic adjustment

Chiropractic Adjustment Lying Down, Sitting and Standing Up

Even those who have visited a chiropractor before may think that you have to lay down in the prone position to get a terrific chiropractic adjustment. However, that is not always the case. Chiropractors use several techniques to get you back to a healthy life. One technique is the Koren Specific Technique or KST. At Secrest Family Chiropractic in Scottsdale, AZ, our chiropractor, Dr. Daniel P. Secrest, and his team can help your body to heal from pain, by making comfortable adjustments in standing, sitting, laying down, or in the specific position of your discomfort.

What Is the Koren Specific Technique?

The Koren Specific Technique is a revolutionary chiropractic method with the principle that long-lasting results can be achieved through gentle adjustment. KST requires the use of an ArthroStim which is a tool that allows our chiropractor to make precise adjustments without any cracking or twisting.

Benefits of KST

Koren Specific Technique helps to relieve pain in patients of all ages. The neurological nature of KST is to get the body to make its own corrections naturally. It can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions such as allergies, disc issues, weight issues, PTSD, TMJ, asthma, and neuromusculoskeletal pain. Any position that is comfortable like sitting, standing, or lying down is appropriate for KST to correct the issues stored in your body’s physiological memory.

The ArthroStim

The ArthroStim is an FDA approved tool that was developed to deliver specific adjustments. It introduces force to the spine in the form of 12-hertz taps per second to relieve nerve pressure and restore alignment in areas of the spine. It can be used in any position. This is critical because some issues can only be identified when the patient is in a specific position.

The Three Cs of KST

These core principles of the Koren Specific Technique are a challenge, check, and correct. It challenges the body’s infrastructure is to ensure that everything is in position. Check allows the chiropractor to determine if a particular body part is out of position. Our goal is to correct whatever adjustments or realignments the patient needs.
