THOMPSON TECHNIQUE
THOMPSON TECHNIQUE
The Thompson Technique, developed by Dr. J. Clay Thompson, has evolved into a system of analysis and adjusting the entire spine. The combination produces precise adjustments and high levels of patient comfort.
A System of Analysis
Early chiropractors noticed that subluxations would produce the appearance of a short, or contracted leg. Using a protocol of comparing leg lengths while the patient turned their head, helped determine whether the subluxation was in the upper, middle or lower back.
Terminal Point Table
What patients often notice first is our segmental "drop" table. After stepping onto the platform, the table gently lowers you into a horizontal position. This helps preserve any leg length inequality.
Individual cushions or "drop pieces" along our table surface support each area of your spine until the thrust is delivered. Then, each drop-piece gently gives way, reducing the energy needed to move a specific spinal segment.
Popular and Patented
So unique is this approach that Dr. Thompson was granted a patent in 1955. Since then, because of its precision and patient results, it has been a technique used worldwide.
