This Table Does More Than a Massage

Hi, this is Dr. Powers. I just wanted to take you through the office and show you some of the technologies that we use to help you to get better under
0:077 secondschiropractic care. This table is called technically called intersegmental traction. And in our office, you’ll
0:1515 secondsoften hear us refer to it as the rolly bed or the massage table. This device has rollers inside the table that will
0:2424 secondsroll up and down the spine and feel a lot like a like a gentle massage. The intent is to create what we call
0:3232 secondssynchronous segmental motion in the spine. Every vertebrae in the spine should move relative to the vertebrae
0:4141 secondsabove it and the one below it. And partly that’s what we’re doing when we’re applying a chiropractic adjustment
0:4747 secondsto the spine is to restore motion to the areas that are not moving to the way that they ought to. But not every vertebrae needs to be adjusted. And so
0:5656 secondswe use intersegmental traction to create a synchronous wave of motion through the spine that improves the health of all
1:041 minute, 4 secondsthe joints and gets all the sensors that are in the spine to sync up and move well together. And in doing that, we can
1:131 minute, 13 secondshelp reduce your pain, cause great relaxation effects, facilitate normal healthy motion in the spine, and help you to get better faster.
