Technologies to Enhance
Your Chiropractic Care
The chiropractors at Hughes Chiropractic Health Center use the best equipment, along with their years of experience and knowledge, to help you achieve optimum health and well-being. These technologies include:
- Thermoscribe - This temperature-measurement device is designed to be tracked up the spine to check for thermal areas that indicate misalignment in the spine. This instrument gives us the objective information we need to determine if an adjustment needs to be made, and it is used to recheck the spine after an adjustment to confirm that the correction has been made.
- Stereoradiography - This tool allows us to "see around" structures that might obscure a clear view of your spine, thus giving us the best possible view of your spine. Then we know best how to help remove any subluxations so your body can function at its optimum level. Rest assured that you will receive the very lowest exposure possible, with minimal radiation.
- Side-posture drop-headpiece - This device assists in your comfort during cervical adjustments. We also have drop-headpieces specifically to fit toddlers and children.
- Specialized adjustment tables - These comfortable, low tables give the doctors greater flexibility in making specific spinal adjustments to ensure your treatment is effective and comfortable. The table’s headpiece provides precise drop-and-tension settings to control the mechanism’s movement depending on the size and shape of the individual we are adjusting with our toggle-recoil side-posture adjusting technique. If we are making a thoracic (mid-spine) or lumbar or pelvic adjustment, the low height of the adjusting table allows us to have a position of better leverage to make the adjustment more gentle.
Most importantly, it’s not just the technology which makes your chiropractic care so effective. You'll find the friendly doctors at the family practice of the Hughes Chiropractic Health Center really take a personal interest in your health.
