Expert Gonstead Chiropractic Care
At Greenspan Chiropractic, we proudly offer the Gonstead Method of chiropractic—a highly precise, effective, and proven technique. Dr. Howie's careful adjustments provide targeted spinal and cervical corrections, reducing nerve irritation, pain, and inflammation naturally.
What Sets Gonstead Apart?
Dr. Howie exclusively practices the Gonstead technique—considered the "gold standard" of chiropractic care—for one simple reason: it works.
Dr. Howie takes full-spine x-rays to precisely identify misalignments and understand the complete structural relationship of your spine—no guesswork involved.
Unlike general manipulation approaches, Dr. Howie specifically analyzes each segment of your spine to identify the exact vertebrae that need adjustment.
Dr. Howie's hands-on approach delivers specific adjustments only to the vertebrae that need correction—nothing more, nothing less.
Dr. Howie tracks your progress with objective measurements, ensuring you're making real, verifiable improvements throughout your care.
"The Gonstead method allows me to accurately find the misaligned segment, fix it with 'hands-on' adjustment, and monitor the restored joint function. It's precise, scientific, and gets results."— Dr. Howie Greenspan
