Corrective Chiropractic
Like Orthodontics for Your Spine
Precise, progressive corrections that produce lasting structural change — not just temporary relief. Think of it like orthodontics for your spine.
What It Is
How Corrective Chiropractic Works
Your nervous system controls every function in your body — from your heartbeat to your immune response to how well you sleep. When spinal misalignments (subluxations) interfere with nerve communication, your body cannot function at its best. That interference shows up as pain, fatigue, headaches, digestive issues, and more.
Corrective chiropractic care at The Roots Health Centers is designed to identify and correct these misalignments over time using the Torque Release Technique — a gentle, instrument-assisted method with no twisting, cracking, or popping. We pair every adjustment with objective measurements from our CLA INSiGHT nerve scans so we can track your progress and adapt your care plan based on real data.
Our corrective care plans typically span three to six months of active correction, followed by a wellness maintenance phase. This is not a quick fix — it is a structured process designed to create lasting change in your spinal health and nervous system function.

What to Expect
Your Corrective Chiropractic Experience
Comprehensive Evaluation
Your first visit includes a full consultation, neurological exam, CLA INSiGHT nerve scans, and digital x-rays (if clinically indicated). We want to see exactly what is happening — no guesswork.
Report of Findings
We sit down with you and walk through your scans, x-rays, and exam findings in detail. You will understand what is causing your symptoms, how long correction will take, and exactly what the plan looks like.
Corrective Phase
During the corrective phase (typically three to six months), you will receive targeted adjustments using the Torque Release Technique. Progress is measured with periodic re-scans so we can see objective improvement.
Wellness Maintenance
Once correction is achieved, you transition to a maintenance schedule — typically one to two visits per month — to maintain your results and keep your nervous system functioning at its best.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Not at all. TRT uses a handheld instrument called an Integrator to deliver precise, gentle corrections to the spine. There is no twisting, cracking, or popping. Most patients describe the adjustment as a light tapping sensation. It is one of the most researched and gentle adjusting methods in chiropractic.
Most corrective care plans at our office range from three to six months of active correction. After the corrective phase, patients typically transition to a wellness maintenance schedule of one to two visits per month. We will give you a clear timeline during your Report of Findings.
CLA INSiGHT is NASA-published technology that measures how your nervous system is functioning in real time. It includes Surface EMG scans to measure muscle tension patterns caused by nerve interference, thermal scans to detect inflammation along the spine, and Heart Rate Variability to measure your body's ability to adapt to stress. These scans give us objective, measurable data.
Traditional chiropractic often focuses on temporary symptom relief. Corrective chiropractic is designed to make progressive structural changes to your spine over time — similar to how orthodontics gradually straightens teeth. We use objective measurements to track your progress and ensure lasting change.
