Why choose Gonstead chiropractic?
Gonstead chiropractic is arguably the most specific form of chiropractic in the world today. The Gonstead system uses the exact same principles of spinal analysis including full spinal x-rays, digital palpation, motion palpation and thermography as Dr Gonstead used on all his patients in collaboration with the very latest in chiropractic research.
The
Buchannan Clinic, Edinburgh is only the second chiropractic
clinic in Scotland to be equipped with a full spinal
radiography department. Once Your Gonstead Doctor
has arrived at a diagnoses and detected which vertebrae
is responsible for your pain he/she will with great
care specifically and gently reposition the vertebrae
back into its correct position, and in doing so taking
pressure of the nerve responsible for your pain.
To
maintain such high standards of chiropractic care
and to keep Gonstead Chiropractic at the fore front
of Chiropractic a Gonstead Doctor has to complete
a rigorous and extensive training course. He/she must
complete a 5 year chiropractic degree from a recognised
and regulated chiropractic college. The Gonstead Doctor
must attend 200 hours of Gonstead chiropractic training
in the United States with the Gonstead seminar of
chiropractic. Once training is complete the Doctor
must complete an internship at Gonstead clinic under
the guidance of a Gonstead Doctor. Once the internship
has been completed the Gonstead Doctor must be approved
by the Gonstead seminar of Chiropractic in Barrington,
Illinois, and is registered with them
Although highly trained in the analysis and correction of the human spine, the Gonstead doctor goes far further than just focusing all their attention on the spine. What many people believed made Doctor Gonstead get such great results with all his patients was his patient management, and his ability to look at the patient as a whole, and not just focusing on their immediate pain. The Gonstead system thus looks at all aspects of the patient's health analyzing areas such as diet, stress, lifestyle and sleep.
