Chiropractic Adjustments in Kansas City, MO
Restore Function, Reduce Pain, and Support Natural Healing
At Carey Chiropractic, we offer safe, effective chiropractic adjustments to help restore proper alignment, relieve pain, and improve overall body function. Also known as spinal manipulation, chiropractic adjustments are a hands-on technique that targets areas of the spine and joints that may be misaligned or functioning improperly.
Dr. John Carey uses precise, gentle force, either with his hands or a specialized instrument, to realign the vertebrae and support the body’s natural ability to heal. This process helps reduce pressure on nerves, restore mobility, and improve communication between your brain and body.
Rather than masking symptoms with medication, we focus on correcting the root cause of dysfunction by addressing subluxations (spinal misalignments). With consistent care, patients often experience improved posture, reduced pain, better mobility, and enhanced overall wellness.
What to Expect
Chiropractic adjustments typically require no special preparation. During your visit, Dr. Carey will evaluate your spine, identify areas of misalignment, and perform a series of targeted adjustments. The number of sessions needed varies depending on the degree of misalignment and how your body responds to care.
