Chiropractors commonly use a mix of hands-on adjustments, gentler instrument-assisted techniques, and supportive therapies like stretching or soft-tissue work. The exact approach depends on the patient’s condition, comfort level, and the chiropractor’s training.

Common techniques
Diversified technique: a high-velocity, low-amplitude manual thrust used to improve joint motion and alignment.

Gonstead technique: a more specific hands-on method that relies on detailed analysis, sometimes including X-rays, to target particular spinal segments.

Activator method: a low-force technique that uses a handheld instrument to deliver a quick impulse to a joint.

Thompson technique: uses a special drop-table that helps apply a lighter adjustment force.

Flexion-distraction: a gentle table-based stretching and decompression approach often used for disc-related back pain.

Other therapies they may use
Chiropractors may also use spinal manipulation, spinal decompression, soft tissue therapy such as massage or trigger point work, and therapeutic exercise as part of treatment. These are often combined to reduce pain, improve mobility, and support longer-term recovery.

What they’re used for
These techniques are commonly used for back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, joint pain, poor posture, and some disc or mobility problems. If you want, I can also break this down into “gentle vs. more forceful techniques” or explain which ones are typically used for specific problems like low back pain or neck pain.
