Chiropractic Care with Dr. Goffe

sidebanner-meet-the-doctorDr. Goffe uses a number of highly-effective adjusting approaches to help improve spinal biomechanics and reduce nervous system interference. The approach he uses is based on clinical judgment and years of experience.

The primary adjusting techniques used include:

NUCCA

NUCCA is an acronym for the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association. This is our primary focus.

This technique does a very detailed analysis of misalignment in the neck which can cause problems throughout the entire body. The technique was originally taught by Dr. Ralph Gregory who worked with another pioneering researcher in the chiropractic field named, Dr. John Grostic, Sr. Other very similar techniques based on the same model include Atlas Orthoganality and Orthospinology.

This technique uses a very specific, light and controlled force to restore misaligned spinal bones to their proper position allowing the nerves to functional optimally. During this procedure patients lie comfortably on their sides, and the doctor applies a very gentle pressure behind the ear at a bone in the spine. There is never any turning or twisting of the head and neck in this procedure. In fact, it is one of the safest, most comfortable and most effective techniques in chiropractic today.

Chirodontics

Chirondontics is a technique that is used in our office primarily to assist people with problems associated with Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Dysfunction. This procedure uses an interdisciplinary approach with area dentists and orthodontists to address the entire problem associated with dental occlusion (how the teeth fit together) as well as postural and nervous systems disturbances that produce TMJ dysfunction, headaches, spinal pain/problems and a host of other conditions. We are pleased to have a strong chiropractic, dental and orthodontic team to address challenging cases.

Extremity Adjusting

In this procedure the doctor is able to assess how well other joints in the body are functioning. Other joints include, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, hips, knees, ankles, feet, etc. This highly effective procedure is many times helpful for frozen shoulders, correcting the underlying problem with Tennis (or Golfer’s) Elbow, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, sprains of all types, etc. Using a variety of comfortable and effective adjustments.

Impulse

Dr. Goffe is a Certified Instrument Adjuster and uses the impulse adjusting instrument. This handheld instrument delivers a carefully measured and directed thrust that is many times faster than is possible by hand, so less force needed. read more»
