About Oasis Family Chiropractic
Our Chiropractic Philosophy
We believe the body has an incredible ability to heal, adapt, and function at its best. The nervous system plays a vital role in this process, constantly communicating between the brain and the rest of the body.
Everyday physical, emotional, and chemical stresses can place strain on our bodies and affect how we move and function. Over time, these stresses may contribute to changes in the muscles, joints, and spine.
Rather than simply focusing on symptoms, chiropractic looks at the body as a whole. We look for areas of interference within the spine and nervous system and use specific chiropractic adjustments to help restore proper movement and function, supporting the body’s natural ability to heal and adapt.
At Oasis Family Chiropractic, we utilize a variety of gentle adjusting techniques tailored to each individual—from newborns to seniors. Our goal is to provide thoughtful, personalized care that supports you and your family through every stage of life.
Our mission is simple: to help you and your family move well, feel well, and live well—so you can do more of what you love and enjoy a healthier, more balanced life.
Our Approach to Chiropractic
Thompson / Drop Table – The Drop Table is a gentle, low-velocity technique that uses a specially designed table to assist with the adjustment. Sections of the table gently drop as specific areas of the spine are adjusted, allowing gravity and your body weight to work with the chiropractor’s adjustment. The table is customized to each patient’s body weight, allowing us to use only the amount of pressure needed for you. This technique is designed to gently improve spinal movement and function.
Activator – Activator is an ideal technique for patients who prefer a gentle, low-force approach. A small, spring-loaded handheld instrument delivers a controlled, precise force to specific areas of the spine. Because the adjustment is quick and gentle, many patients find it comfortable and easy to relax through. Activator can be a great option for those with a sensitive spine, age-related changes, or anyone who feels hesitant about traditional manual adjustments. As with all of our techniques, we choose the approach that is most appropriate and comfortable for each individual patient.
Webster Technique – The Webster Technique is a gentle approach focused on the pelvis and the surrounding muscles and ligaments. It is commonly used during pregnancy to help address areas of tension and imbalance and support healthy pelvic function as the body changes throughout pregnancy. Our goal is to help expectant mothers feel comfortable, move well, and support their bodies as they prepare for labor and delivery. The technique is gentle and can be adapted to the changing needs of each stage of pregnancy.
Intersegmental Traction - IST is a therapy we offer to help improve spinal alignment and mobility. It involves laying on a special table that gently stretches and mobilizes the spine, reducing tension in the surrounding muscles. It tends to be a favorite here in the office.
Other Techniques – While the above methods are our primary techniques, we do incorporate other techniques such as CBP (Chiropractic BioPhysics), the Impulse Adjusting Instrument, and various forms of muscle work. Ultimately, the techniques we choose to use will depend on your specific health challenges and goals.
