Relief Beyond the Spine—Because Every Joint Matters
Chiropractic care isn’t just for the spine. At Phoenixville Chiropractic, Dr. Andrew Timar offers extremity adjustments to help restore proper alignment, function, and comfort to the joints of the arms and legs. Whether you’re an athlete, an active parent, or someone struggling with joint pain, extremity adjustments can help you move better and feel better from head to toe.
What Are Extremity Adjustments?
Extremity adjustments are precise chiropractic techniques applied to the joints outside of the spine—like the shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles. Just like the vertebrae, these joints can become misaligned or restricted due to injury, repetitive motion, poor posture, or compensation from other issues in the body.
When joints don’t move the way they should, they can cause:
-
Pain and inflammation
-
Reduced range of motion
-
Muscle tension and imbalance
-
Decreased performance or function
Through gentle, controlled adjustments, Dr. Timar helps restore natural movement, reduce joint stress, and support better mechanics throughout your body.
Conditions Treated with Extremity Adjustments
Extremity adjusting is useful for treating a variety of issues, including:
-
Rotator cuff injuries
-
Tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow
-
Carpal tunnel syndrome
-
Wrist and hand pain
-
Hip joint dysfunction
-
Knee pain and patellar tracking issues
-
Ankle sprains and chronic instability
-
Plantar fasciitis
-
Gait and mobility problems
These adjustments are especially helpful for athletes, tradespeople, and anyone whose lifestyle puts extra strain on their joints.
How Extremity Adjustments Work
After evaluating your movement, posture, and joint function, Dr. Timar identifies areas of dysfunction or restriction. Using his hands or specialized instruments, he applies a quick, gentle force to the affected joint to restore proper motion.
Many patients feel immediate improvement in mobility and comfort, and the effects often improve with follow-up care that may include soft tissue work or corrective exercises.
Why Extremity Adjustments Matter
Your body works as a connected system—when one part is out of alignment, it can affect everything else. For example, a locked ankle can cause knee or hip problems. A restricted shoulder can lead to neck pain. Extremity adjustments not only reduce localized pain but help rebalance your entire movement system.
At Phoenixville Chiropractic, Dr. Timar looks at the big picture. Extremity adjustments are integrated into your full-body care plan to support better health, performance, and injury prevention.
