Keep reading to learn the benefits of this wonderful form of chiropractic care.
How Does the Koren Specific Technique Work?
Dr. Ted Koren created The Koren Specific Technique in 2003. He determined that many symptoms could be relieved by locating and correcting misaligned vertebrae.
His technique includes a three-step “C” approach, now widely used by chiropractors.
It includes:
- Challenging – finding the misalignment
- Checking – deciding if and where to make an adjustment
- Correcting – making the adjustment
Unlike other chiropractic methods, a unique FDA-approved handheld ArthroStim instrument is used to make adjustments on patients.
Because of this special tool, chiropractors make adjustments without any twisting or turning of the patient’s joints.
Conditions Soothed With the Koren Specific Technique
The Koren Specific Technique can help with many of the typical chiropractic issues, such as back pain, neck pain, and even headaches.
However, because of its gentle method, it can also be effective in treating a wide variety of other issues. These include dizziness and vertigo, and it can even improve your balance. The Koren Specific Technique can also aid with anxiety and other emotional stress issues.
Patients who have experienced the Koren Specific Technique also report that it can help you recover from injuries, help with PMS, and even help you breathe better.
Koren Specific Technique Benefits
Let’s go over the benefits of this particular technique.
Gentle
One of the most important benefits of the Koren Specific Technique is that it is so gentle on the body. It uses much less force and pressure than most other chiropractic techniques.
Immediate
Another great benefit is that it will reduce the patient’s pain immediately. The healing process will continue to help the body unwind after the adjustment.
Flexibility
Because adjustments are made using the ArthroStim, they can be done in any position. You can sit, stand, or lie down, whichever position may cause the pain to be worse or is most comfortable for you.
