Our Chiropractic Techniques:
Chiropractic First is known throughout the world as "The Posture Experts." Chiropractic First specializes in posture correction and spinal health maintenance through Clinical Biomechanics of Posture/Chiropractic Biophysics (CBP). A wide variety of Chiropractic techniques are available customizable to each patient's special needs. We look beyond the symptoms to find the cause of dis-ease in the body, and correct it. Our philosophy toward health is guided by the knowledge that our bodies are self-healing. Healing is ultimately controlled by the brain and nervous system. Stresses, strains and injuries can prevent your body from healing and communicating properly. The Chiropractor's job is to find where the distress is occurring on your nervous system and to remove the cause of the stress, allowing your body to heal naturally without nerve interference.
One of our techniques of expertise is Chiropractic Biophysics/Clinical Biomechanics of Posture (CBP). CBP utilizes gentle Mirror Image postural adjustments personally tailored to each patient's needs. Adjustments may include use of the doctor's hands, an Omni Drop Table and sometimes a CBP Adjusting Instrument. CBP also uses Mirror Image postural exercises designed to improve balance and symmetry throughout the whole body. The benefits of balanced posture include pain-free ranges of motion, improved balance, and increased strength and stamina. It is common for our patients to increase the thickness of the discs in their spine, grow taller, and stop the process of spinal degeneration (osteoarthritis). We have helped patients with scoliosis to improve the shape of their spines. Our doctors are state board licensed Oregon Chiropractic Physicians. Our doctors are licensed to perform Physiotherapy. They are also certified fellows of Chiropractic Biophysics (CBP). (Take a virtual guided tour of our before and after X-Rays here.)
