Dr. Wayne Rudnick specializes in chiropractic adjustments. A chiropractic adjustment is also known as chiropractic manipulation, manual manipulation, or spinal manipulation. The adjustment refers to the manipulation of the vertebrae that have abnormal movements and are not functioning properly. A chiropractic adjustment will assist in fixing these issues. It involves high & low velocity thrusts applied to the vertebra, relieving discomfort and spasms in the surrounding muscles. It also releases joint cavitation, which is caused by the release of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide.
The goal of chiropractic treatment is to reduce the subluxation (a slight misalignment or restricted joint function), increase the range of motion, reduce nerve irritability, and improve mobility.
The staff here at Tucson Chiropractic Center can help you in a variety of ways. Dr. Rudnick has been practicing in Tucson since 1996 and has met or surpassed the board requirements for post-graduate education.
