What is Gonstead Chiropractic?

Care for the spine in a gentle, effective, and specific way.

What is Gonstead Chiropractic?
The Gonstead System of Chiropractic is a method of chiropractic used to analyse and care for the spine in a gentle, effective, and specific way. It is precise and meticulous in evaluating and adjusting the spine.

The method was based on the work of Dr. Clarence Gonstead who spent his life developing a complete system of biomechanical analysis for chiropractic.
The Gonstead system is a full spinal system of assessing and adjusting the spine ensuring that the true cause of the dysfunction is found. The Gonstead system approaches the spine biomechanically – that means that we relate the structure of the spine to how we will adjust it. The Gonstead Chiropractor conducts a thorough analysis of your spine using five criteria to determine
where the problem has occurred.

Visualisation – Looking at your posture, the way you move and even how the tissues appear. Subtle changes in your posture and movement can indicate any potential problem areas.

Instrumentation – The instrument of choice in the Gonstead System is the Nervoscope. The Nervoscope detects uneven distributions of heat along the spine that can be indicative of inflammation and nerve pressure and irritation. This instrument is guided down the length of your back and feels like two fingers
gliding down each side of your spine.

Static Palpation – This is simply the process of palpating (feeling) your spine in a static (stationary) position. We will feel for the presence of swelling, tenderness and any abnormal texture or tightness in the muscles and other tissues.

Motion Palpation – This process involves feeling the spine while moving and bending in various positions. This enables us to determine whether or not each individual vertebra is functioning normally. Some may not have as much motion as they should while others may move too much.

Radiographic (X-Ray) Analysis – X-rays enable us to visualise the entire structure of your spine. This is helpful in evaluating posture, joint and disc integrity, vertebral misalignments and ruling out any pathologies, or recent fractures that may be present or contributing to your condition. X-rays are taken in the standing, weight-bearing position to fully validate the examination findings.

The Adjustment – After a complete analysis, we are ready to explain our findings and make a recommendation to the best solution to meet your goals. We also now have the necessary information to deliver a specific adjustment. The focus of the Gonstead adjustment is to be as specific, precise and meticulous as possible, addressing the key problem areas and leaving the compensating areas alone.
Great care is taken to ensure a biomechanically correct adjustment. The aim of the adjustment is to create the right environment for the body to heal itself.
