Thompson Technique
What is the Thompson Technique?
The Thompson Technique is a gentle, specialized chiropractic method that uses a specially designed table with sections that move slightly—called drop pieces. Instead of twisting or forceful movements, your chiropractor uses light, precise pressure on the spine. The table then makes a small, quick drop that assists the adjustment. This gentle motion allows your body to shift into proper alignment with less force and greater comfort.
Benefits of the Thompson Technique
Gentle and comfortable — no twisting of the spine or large movements are needed.
Precise adjustments — the drop-table design allows for very specific corrections to restore balance.
Improved posture and spinal alignment — helping reduce pain, stiffness, and stress on the nervous system.
Safe for many patients — often used for individuals who prefer a lighter technique or who may not tolerate traditional adjustments.
If you’re seeking a chiropractic approach that is gentle, effective, and doesn’t involve twisting the body, the Thompson Technique may be a great fit for you.
