WHAT IS THE GONSTEAD TECHNIQUE?
The Gonstead Technique is a highly specific and evidence-informed chiropractic method that focuses on structural correction of the spine. Unlike general chiropractic that may involve broad or repeated adjustments, Gonstead care is based on:
- Detailed spinal analysis
- Objective assessments
- Focused adjustments to a single spinal segment per visit (if needed)
It’s known for being extremely effective, especially for patients seeking long-term relief from disc issues, nerve pain, postural problems, and chronic misalignment.
HOW GONSTEAD STANDS APART:
- Full-Spine X-rays (as needed) to visualize alignment and structure
- Palpation and motion analysis to feel where joints are restricted
- Nervoscope thermography to detect inflammation and nerve pressure
- Posture and weight-bearing evaluation
- One clear, specific adjustment—not a “crack everything” approach
This is chiropractic without guesswork.

FAQs:
Q: What makes Gonstead different from regular chiropractic?
A: Gonstead focuses on precision—one specific adjustment based on detailed analysis. It’s not about “popping everything” or using the same routine for every patient.
Q: Do you take full-spine X-rays?
A: Yes, if clinically appropriate. X-rays are a core part of Gonstead analysis and help us see the whole picture—safely and accurately.
Q: Is Gonstead safe for kids or older adults?
A: Absolutely. Gonstead adjustments are tailored to the individual’s size, age, and spinal health. Many families choose us for gentle, effective care.
Q: Will I need to come forever?
A: Not at all. We offer pressure-free care plans and check-in regularly to make sure your spine is improving—not just getting temporary relief.
