Adjustments ARE Chiropractic!
Anything else is not.

Quite simply, chiropractic adjustments are "specific" and provide a mode of energy, a little leverage so your body can once again regain control of its spinal bones, correcting your subluxations, and enhancing your nerve system function. With better nerve system function, your body is able to right itself by enhancing your performance and maximizing your potential in areas you may not have considered when you first started getting your adjustments.

Everyone Benefits

Newborns, infants, children, seniors and even back surgery practice members can get adjusted. Naturally, adjustments are tailored to your size, age and particular situation.


Frequently Asked Questions:

Why would a newborn get adjusted?
Even today's "natural" childbirth methods can cause a subluxation in an infant's spine. Adjustments are gentle. Knowing exactly where to adjust, no more pressure than you'd use to test the ripeness of a tomato is involved.
Can I adjust myself?
No, not intentionally. Some people can make their joints "pop" but that's not an adjustment! Worse, forcing that "pop" on your own does nothing less than create more subluxations. Adjustments are specific and take years to master. Even the doctors at Doctor V have to consult a colleague to get their adjustments.
What does an adjustment feel like?
It feels like a gentle touch. Following their adjustments, most practice members report a sense of well-being or a feeling of calmness.
Can practice members with osteoporosis get chiropractic care?
At Doctor V, we consider the unique circumstances of each practice member. The technique we use will be best suited to your age, size, and circumstances.
Can I have chiropractic care after back surgery
Yes. Rest assured that we will avoid the surgically modified area of your spine. Surgery often causes subluxations above or below the involved level. This will be our focus in your situation.

Dr. V Asks some important questions of interest to Pittsburgh residents - Chiropractor Pittsburgh Dr. V Asks...

What's the difference between sick care and health care?
Sick care is largely about relieving or suppressing symptoms. Health care is about improving performance. While sick care is about how you feel, health care is about how you function. Sick care is what you do to treat an obvious problem, and health care is what you do to avoid the problem and advance your well-being.
What's the difference between a "good" drug and a "bad" drug?
As a chiropractor, I see the use of many drugs (legal or illegal) as merely symptom treating. Worse, virtually every drug produces unwanted effects. The effects of chiropractic are largely positive effects. If you're a Pittsburgh parent, consider carefully before giving your child a cough medication, cold remedy or pain reliever so this sort of question doesn't arise in the first place.
