Chiropractic adjustments are not just for your back! Extremity adjusting is an adjustment or manipulation used to correct joint fixations anywhere in the body other than the spine. Joints can become misaligned and cause pain in the same manner as the spine. Athletes in particular find significant benefits with this type of adjusting. The extremities include: shoulder, elbow, wrist, fingers, toes, knees, and ankles.
