What is Gonstead Chiropractic in Gilbert AZ?

Gonstead is one of the most advanced and scientific methods of chiropractic care available. Developed by Clarence S. Gonstead in the early part of the 20th Century, this approach to chiropractic focuses on the bio-mechanical aspects of healing. Gonstead chiropractors, like Dr. Heidi Chiropractic, use the following criteria to treat their patients:

• Visualization – Through visualization, we cross-reference all other findings. Dr. Heidi Chiropractic is an expert in looking for subtle changes in your posture and movement which could indicate any problems.
• Instrumentation –With the use of the Nervoscope, inflammation and nerve pressure can be detected by showing uneven distributions of heat along the spine.
• Static Palpation – By feeling your spine in a stationary (or static) position, Dr. Heidi Chiropractic can check for the presence of swelling, tenderness, and any abnormal texture or tightness in the muscles and other tissues of your back.
• Motion Palpation – This process involves feeling the spine while moving and bending it at various angles. This determines how easily or difficult each segment in your spine moves in different directions.
• X-Ray Analysis – X-ray films enable Dr. Heidi Chiropractic to visualize the entire structure of your spine. This helps to evaluate posture, joint and disc integrity, vertebral misalignments and ruling out any pathologies, or recent fractures that may be present or contributing to your condition.

When you visit Dr. Heidi Chiropractic at her chiropractic office Gilbert, she will follow this protocol in her assessment of your physical condition. Using the comprehensive Gonstead method, Dr. Heidi Chiropractic can help with your aches and pains, as well as your overall physical well being, and get you back to optimal health.
