The cornerstone of chiropractic therapy at Integrative Chiropractic and Extremities (ICE) in Kennewick, WA, is spinal adjustments aimed at restoring proper segmental motion to the vertebrae. This technique provides numerous benefits, including:

• Reducing pain
• Increasing range of motion
• Decreasing muscle spasms
• Breaking up scar tissue
• Improving neurological function

While spinal manipulation is used by various healthcare practitioners, chiropractors specialize in this form of treatment, making it the hallmark of chiropractic care.

Historically, the “bone out of place” model was believed to explain the effectiveness of chiropractic adjustments. However, recent chiropractic, biomechanical, and neurological research has shown that this theory is overly simplistic. The mechanisms behind spinal dysfunction and correction are far more complex and interconnected than previously understood.

Despite ongoing advancements in research, chiropractors continue to deliver consistent, effective results for patients seeking natural, cost-effective alternatives to conventional medical treatments.

At ICE, our chiropractors utilize a variety of spinal adjustment techniques, all designed to restore proper segmental spinal motion. Our doctors are committed to continuous learning, regularly attending advanced courses to refine their skills and provide the highest level of chiropractic care to our patients.
