We don’t just treat symptoms — we address the root causes to help you achieve lasting wellness.
What to Expect From Our Chiropractic Care Process
We begin with a thorough conversation about your health history, current concerns, daily habits, and goals. From there, we perform a physical evaluation to better understand your posture, spinal motion, areas of tension, and overall mechanical function.
Once we have a clear picture, we create a personalized care plan using a blend of manual and instrument-assisted techniques. As a Diversified practitioner, Dr. Ackerman incorporates dynamic motion analysis along with the precise assessment principles of Gonstead, drop table mechanics, spring-loaded instruments, and myofascial release. Our goal is always to use the exact right combination for your body, not a one-size-fits-all method.
As care continues, we track your progress and adjust the plan as needed so your treatment always stays aligned with how your body responds.
Services and Techniques We Offer
We use a range of chiropractic techniques and soft tissue methods so your care can be specific, comfortable, and effective. Every recommendation is made with your body and your goals in mind.
Gentle, Low-Force Adjustments
Gentle, low-force adjustments are a great option for patients who prefer a lighter approach or who may be sensitive to traditional manual adjustments. These movements are precise, controlled, and designed to support alignment and nervous system function without aggressive force.
Diversified Technique
Diversified technique serves as our primary manual adjusting approach. It is a widely trusted method that focuses on restoring full motion to restricted spinal joints, reducing mechanical stress, and helping your body move more naturally and efficiently.
Drop Table Technique
Drop table technique uses specialized sections of the chiropractic table that gently drop a fraction of an inch during an adjustment. This motion assists the adjustment, allowing for a comfortable, low-force experience while still delivering a highly specific correction.
Spring-Loaded Adjusting Instruments
Spring-loaded adjusting instruments offer a precise, low-force option for chiropractic adjustments. These tools are especially helpful for patients seeking an ultra-gentle experience, as well as for precise work on specific spinal segments or extremity joints.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial release is used to address areas of muscular tension, restricted tissue, and movement limitations. By working with the soft tissues around the joints and spine, this technique helps ease stiffness, improve comfort, and enhance the longevity of your adjustments.
Personalized and Individualized Care Plans
No two bodies are exactly alike, and your care should reflect that. We create personalized treatment plans based on your symptoms, health history, daily demands, and long-term goals, centered on what you need, rather than a generic routine.
- Long hours at a computer
- Prolonged sitting
- Poor movement patterns
- Muscle tension
- Repetitive activities
- Sports or physical activity
- Previous injuries
- Motor vehicle accidents
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.

Quality chiropractic care is not about doing more; it is about doing what is appropriate, specific, and helpful for the person in front of us. At Working Body Chiropractic, we focus on careful evaluation, precise adjustments, and treatment recommendations that make sense for your lifestyle.

By supporting the nervous system and improving mechanical function, we help create the conditions for better movement and long-term progress.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does nervous-system-centered chiropractic care mean?
Nervous-system-centered chiropractic care focuses on how the spine, joints, and surrounding tissues affect communication between the brain and body. The goal is to improve function, reduce interference, and help your body operate more efficiently.
Are chiropractic adjustments always forceful or loud?
No. Many adjustments are very gentle. We offer low-force techniques, drop table methods, and spring-loaded adjusting instruments for patients who want a lighter touch or who are not comfortable with traditional manual adjustments.
Do you use the same technique for every patient?
No. We tailor care to the individual. As a Diversified practitioner, Dr. Ackerman blends manual adjusting with Gonstead concepts, drop table work, instrument adjusting, and myofascial release depending on your preferences and physical needs.
What is included in a personalized treatment plan?
A personalized treatment plan is based on your health history, symptoms, movement patterns, goals, and how your body responds to care. It may include specific chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue work, follow-up recommendations, and guidance that supports your progress over time.
Is myofascial release part of chiropractic care?
It can be. Myofascial release is often used alongside chiropractic adjustments to address soft tissue tension and movement restrictions, which helps support better overall joint function and long-term comfort.
Can I receive care even if I am new to chiropractic?
Yes. If you are new to chiropractic care, we will walk you through the process, answer your questions, and choose an approach that feels appropriate and comfortable for you.
