Dorn Method - A Gentle Pain Relief Approach
JustGet Chiropractic • Jan 14, 2021
Dorn is a very gentle and safe manual therapy which was developed to focus on the causes of common back and joint pain. It complements the other corrective methods used in our Practice and is also effective as a standalone modality.
One of the key and unique aspects of the Dorn Method is the approach used to encourage joints to move more readily back into their correct natural positions and then stay there. There is no magic about the Dorn Method, it is really based on physics and common sense, and a little help from the client who, rather than being a passive subject, actively works to assist the Practitioner.
The correction of a misaligned joint can sometimes prove quite difficult when muscle tension and guarding exacerbate the issue. Simple Dorn adjustments can ‘distract’ these muscles whilst corrections are made. The beauty of this technique is that the Practitioner is working with the body in a form of dynamic yet gentle correction that is usually readily accepted.
During or after the session clients may be shown a set of simple exercise techniques which they can take away with them to practice regularly at home to help maintain balance in the body.
Dorn Method is a combination of three parts, which together provide an excellent maintenance and preventative joint care system designed to look after your body over the long term.
If you’re feeling out of balance then this may be just what you need.
