Gonstead Chiropractic Care and Chronic Pain

Gonstead chiropractic care is a specific type that focuses on precise adjustments to the spine in order to restore its alignment and function, which can help relieve pain and improve your overall health.

The Gonstead technique is based on the belief that subluxations, or misalignments of the spine, can interfere with the nervous system and cause pain and other health problems. By adjusting the spine, Gonstead chiropractors aim to improve nerve function and relieve pain.
