Gonstead Method
PRECISION THROUGH ANALYSIS
Five Components. One Personalized Approach.
The Gonstead Method uses several complementary forms of analysis to build a clearer understanding of the spine and help guide specific chiropractic care.
Visualization
Careful observation of posture, movement, and visible changes can provide important clues about how the spine and body are functioning.
Instrumentation
Specialized instrumentation may be used to identify areas that show changes in temperature or other characteristics that may warrant further evaluation.
Palpation
Hands-on examination allows the chiropractor to assess spinal movement, position, and areas that may not be functioning as expected.
X-Ray Analysis
When clinically appropriate, X-rays can provide additional information about the structure and alignment of the spine and help inform the overall evaluation.
Patient History
Your health history, symptoms, experiences, and goals are an important part of understanding your individual situation and developing an appropriate care approach.
