Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care supports your overall health and well-being, and it’s important for our Progressive Chiropractic patients to understand how it works to help your body heal naturally.

When the joints of your spine become stuck, restricted, or misaligned, negative pain messages are sent from your spine to your brain. Your brain interprets these messages as stressful events, even if you don’t necessarily feel pain. This starts a cascade of stress responses throughout your body. This stress response can affect everything from your coordination and thoughts to your digestion and blood pressure if left unaddressed.

Victoria Chiropractor Mark Smith restores normal movement, alignment, and function to your spine, and positive messages are sent to your brain, producing a cascade of healing hormonal events that decrease your body’s stress load.

NEW PATIENTS

Our Gentle Adjustment Approaches

Dr. Mark uses low-force chiropractic techniques that work with your body’s natural healing processes. Drop table adjustments use gravity to help move bones into proper position, without any twisting or torquing.

Our motorized drop table starts upright and slowly lowers you to horizontal, making it easy for patients with mobility issues, those using walkers, or anyone who has difficulty getting on traditional tables. For pregnant patients, the middle section swings down to accommodate lying face-down comfortably.

Dr. Mark complements these adjustments with electronic instruments that provide gentle vibration and tapping sensations to encourage blood flow and help muscles and joints relax before your adjustment.

Better Health Is Possible Through Noninvasive Care

For patients who are particularly sensitive or prefer an even gentler approach, Dr. Mark offers instrument-only adjustments. Using a VibraCussor for gentle vibration and a variable frequency adjuster for soft tapping sensations, many patients receive highly effective, non-invasive care without any of the traditional manual adjustments.

  • Post-surgical patients who need careful, precise adjustment
  • Seniors with fragile bones or complex health conditions
  • Children and pregnant women who benefit from ultra-gentle techniques
  • Anyone who feels nervous about traditional chiropractic adjustments
