Chiropractic Adjustments to Restore Movement & Performance
At Lake Effect Performance and Recovery, adjustments are treated as the foundation to treatment, not the entirety of the appointment. Adjustments create the framework for proper neural input and nervous system functioning, allowing for better biomechanics in the surrounding soft tissue structure.
Is This For You?
Chiropractic adjustments are appropriate for athletes and active individuals dealing with pain, stiffness, movement limitations, or recurring issues- as well as those looking to maintain mobilty and support performance.Â
Let us identify the underlying cause, and let's get you moving again!
How It Works
An adjustment can help improve joint mobility, reduce pain and stiffness, and restore more efficient movement.. By addressing areas of dysfunction, chiropractic care can help your body move and perform the way it was designed to.
What to Expect
Your appointment begins with an assessment to identify areas of restriction or dysfunction. Your adjustment is then performed using the technique best suited to your needs, followed by movement-based recommendations.
Y-Strap Adjustment
Among the techniques utilized during a chiropractic adjustment is the Y-strap — a traction-based method using a strap to deliver a controlled, longitudinal decompressive force through the cervical spine. This technique is intended to create space between vertebral segments, reduce compressive pressure, and restore proper alignment along the biomechanical axis of the neck.
​
The Y-strap adjustment is applied when clinically appropriate, as one component within the broader treatment plan established during your evaluation — not as a standalone technique performed independent of the underlying assessment.
