Our Chiropractic Techniques
We use a number of highly-effective adjusting approaches to help improve spinal biomechanics and reduce nervous system interference. The approach we use is based on our clinical judgment and years of experience.
At North Kildonan Family Chiropractic Centre, we offer a variety of Chiropractic techniques.
The primary adjusting techniques we use include:
Diversified
