Gentle Drop Table Chiropractic

If you want precise chiropractic care without twisting, popping, or strong force, drop table technique may be a good fit for you. At Working Body Chiropractic in Davis, CA, we use this low-force adjusting method to support your nervous system, improve movement, and reduce tension in a comfortable, controlled way.


Drop table chiropractic allows us to address specific areas of your spine and pelvis while keeping you relaxed and supported. Your care is always one-on-one and tailored to what your body needs and what you are ready for that day — not a generic care plan or preset routine.

Why Drop Table Technique May Be Right for You

Drop table technique uses a specialized chiropractic table with sections that gently lift and then quickly drop a short distance as your adjustment is delivered. This helps target specific joints and soft tissues with less overall force to your body. Many people appreciate this style of care when they prefer a calmer, quieter adjustment experience.


At Working Body Chiropractic, we combine drop table work with a nervous-system-centered approach. That means we are not just focused on a single joint or muscle — we are looking at how your brain and body are communicating, how you move through your day, and how your system responds to stress over time.


Benefits people often seek from drop table adjustments include:



  • Low-force adjustments that feel gentle and controlled
  • More ease in movement through the spine, hips, and pelvis
  • Support for posture and overall balance in the body
  • A calmer experience that can feel less intense than manual thrusts
  • Adaptable care that changes as your nervous system and body change


Every visit is shaped around your health goals, whether that is moving with more comfort, supporting long-term spinal health, or simply feeling more at ease in your body.

What to Expect During a Drop Table Visit

Your visit starts with a conversation about how you are feeling and what has changed since your last session. We check in with your posture, movement, and areas of tension so we can adjust our approach to match what your body needs that day.


During the adjustment, you will lie comfortably on the drop table while we gently position different parts of your spine or pelvis. The table sections will lift and then drop a small distance as we apply a precise contact. The movement of the table does much of the work, which lets us keep the force low and the adjustment focused. You stay clothed, and we move at a pace that respects your comfort and your nervous system.

Whiplash can occur when the head and neck move rapidly back and forth, commonly during a motor vehicle accident.


Some people experience neck stiffness, reduced movement, headaches, or muscle discomfort following an injury. Symptoms can also develop after the initial event.


If you've been involved in an accident, appropriate evaluation is important.

A Nervous-System-Centered Approach to Chiropractic

Working Body Chiropractic is focused on how your nervous system is functioning, not just on "pushing bones back into place." With drop table technique, we are paying attention to how your body responds, how your muscles relax or guard, and how your system integrates each adjustment.



Instead of a one-size-fits-all plan, we track your progress over time and adjust your care as you change. Some visits may include more drop table work, while others may draw on different gentle techniques depending on what best supports your body that day.
