Chiropractic Techniques..

All Chiropractors are not the same. Let me explain...all Chiropractors do not practice the same chiropractic technique. One of the reasons people hesitate to see a Chiropractor is they fear the noise or “cracking sound” that is often associated with a spinal adjustment. So one thing to get clear about is that there are many different ways or Chiropractic techniques that Dr. Augustine offers to his patients. It does not have to include the “cracking” that people are accustomed to.

Many times, Dr. Augustine will offer a low force chiropractic technique where you don't hear any sound at all when you are adjusted. This is a great way to introduce people who are a little timid about starting Chiropractic care. First, they can see what it is all about and then if the patient wants to try something a little more aggressive it can be done. In addition, patients who are have osteoporosis have to have a treatment that is gentle to their spine.

In addition, Dr. Augustine has certification in Upper Cervical Chiropractic with the late Dr. Michael Kale. He is one of a handful of doctors in New York State that practice this Chiropractic technique. Also, Dr. Augustine has advanced training in Activator, Brimhall, and Applied Kinesiology. “By using a combination of chiropractic techniques with my patients, I am able to help them get out of pain much quicker. The days are gone where a Chiropractor could just use one technique.”
