Dr. Ayaz Shah offers outstanding chiropractic care, including chiropractic adjustments, at several convenient locations throughout New York City, including Jackson Heights, Midtown Manhattan, the Bronx, and Woodside. He specializes in sought-after techniques that attract international patients.
Chiropractic Adjustments and Techniques
A chiropractic adjustment is a manual manipulation of the spinal column and extremities utilizing certain techniques. Not all techniques are suitable for every patient, which is why Dr. Shah chose to specialize in several adjustment techniques, including:
Gonstead Technique
The Gonstead technique utilizes a specific set of assessments to review your medical history holistically to detect vertebral subluxations as part of a protocol that investigates the whole spine, not just the parts that hurt.
Gonstead-based adjustments focus on restoring misalignments to the correct position, improving mobility, and having the most positive impact on vertebral discs possible while kick-starting our natural healing processes. Gonstead-based adjustments focus on improving a patient’s quality of life and function.
HIO
HIO refers to a hole-in-one adjustment, also called the toggle chiropractic technique. An HIO is an adjustment in the upper neck area that has a domino effect on the whole spine, correcting the whole spine with one manipulation, and improving your posture. The adjustment itself is a high-velocity, low-force adjustment that is quick and painless.
Manipulation Under Anesthesia
Dr. Shah provides chiropractic adjustments to Jackson Heights, NY, and the neighboring boroughs and one of his specialties is manipulation under anesthesia (MUA). MUA is a chiropractic adjustment where the patient is lightly sedated during adjustments. It is recommended when other natural, non-invasive therapies and adjustments have failed to relieve your pain, and/or manual manipulation without sedation is too painful for the patient.
Three Primary Benefits of Chiropractic Adjustments
Patients seek chiropractic care for many reasons. One of the most prevalent reasons is because they are uncomfortable and in pain. Chiropractic care has a long track record of successfully providing pain relief to patients with various chiropractic complaints.
Another benefit of chiropractic care is that it's non-invasive, natural, and integrates as part of a holistic health care regime that focuses on treating the entire body instead of only relieving or reducing the symptoms.
A third benefit of chiropractic care is that it is suitable for patients of all ages. Different chiropractic adjustment techniques can be used when treating patients of different activity levels and stages of development and chiropractors like Dr. Shah personalize their treatments for better health.
