The Diversified Technique is the most widely practiced form of spinal manipulation by chiropractors globally, including those at Pathways Chiropractic in Surrey, BC. It is a high-velocity, low-amplitude (HVLA) adjustment, and involves delivering a rapid, precise thrust by hand to a targeted joint whether in the spine, arms, or legs to restore proper movement and alignment. This adjustment often produces a distinct “pop” which is a harmless release of synovial gas from the joint space. Far from being intimidating, it can provide immediate relief and lead to improved mobility .
