Our Chiropractic Process in Burlington, NJ
What sets Burlington Chiropractic apart is how we evaluate every patient. Our signature 5 Phase Bio-Structural Evaluation examines your entire structure to reveal the biomechanical and neurological problems that are the root cause of your pain. Instead of guessing, our doctors in Burlington, NJ use objective testing to guide precise care and show you measurable progress.
Our 5 Phase Bio-Structural Evaluation
Phase 1: Consultation
We begin with a complete health history and a detailed discussion of your areas of concern. This helps us understand the health challenges you are facing, your goals, and how we can help.
Phase 2: Digital Spinal Nerve Testing
Digital spinal nerve testing is a major advancement in spinal nerve analysis. This test shows how your brain is communicating with your body by identifying the location and severity of nerve disruption. You will see a visual image of your scan, and the doctors will explain how it relates to your problem.
Your health depends on your body’s ability to adapt to stress, and those stresses are all processed by your brain and nervous system. The better that system functions, the better you are able to heal. Because we measure nerve function at your visits, we can make sure each adjustment is precise and track your healing objectively. Infrared technology of this kind is also used by the military and law enforcement, and research has shown it to be a reliable tool for evaluating nerve function.
Phase 3: Digital X-Rays
We offer in-house digital radiography with ultra-sensitive panel technology that reduces radiation exposure by up to 80% while delivering superior image clarity. Initial images reveal pathologies, show the history of your spinal health, and make your care more precise.
Phase 4: Dynamic Digital Radiography (DDR)
The most important aspect of DDR is the ability to see your spine in motion. By assessing how each vertebra moves, we can evaluate the muscle, ligament, and joint stability of your spine and identify specific biomechanical issues. This safer, more precise analysis leads to more precise results.
Phase 5: Correction Monitoring
Seeing is believing. What patients love most is how they feel and being able to see their results. We show you your spinal correction, including images of your shoulders and hips leveling, your muscles balancing, and your spine improving over time.
This system of care was developed by Dr. Walter Pierce, D.C., who believed that if you cannot prove a correction with objective measurements, it probably did not happen. Many treatments provide temporary relief, but without true correction the results rarely last. Our correction monitoring tracks every aspect of your healing so your care stays precise and your results hold.
Other Advanced Tools We Use
Precision Spinal Adjusting Instrument
Once we identify areas of spinal misalignment, or subluxation, we begin the correction process. One of our tools is a precision spinal adjusting instrument connected to a computer program that allows the doctor to set the exact frequency and force needed to realign your spine. Research shows each vertebra responds differently to various forces and frequencies, and finding the right combination makes each adjustment more effective. Patients love how gentle it feels.
Drop Table Adjusting
Drop table adjustments are comfortable, safe, and effective. The table includes small sections that drop slightly during the adjustment, eliminating the need to twist or crack the spine. Many patients appreciate this gentler style of chiropractic care, and our results show that precise analysis paired with precise correction leads to outstanding outcomes.
To support your progress between visits, we may also recommend corrective exercises, myofascial release, and lifestyle advice. New patients can learn more on our Your First Visit page.
