The Drop Table Technique
For Gonstead adjustments, Dr. Railey uses a specialized drop table that gently supports the adjustment process. As the table drops slightly with each correction, it allows for a controlled, low-force adjustment — minimizing strain while maximizing precision. This gentle motion aids in restoring alignment, reducing pain, and improving overall mobility.
How The Gonstead & Drops Technique Works
1️⃣ Precision Assessment:
A thorough evaluation begins with detailed visual and tactile assessment, sometimes supported by spinal imaging. This ensures each adjustment is highly specific and tailored to your needs.
2️⃣ Drop Table Mechanism:
During the adjustment, the drop table allows for smooth, controlled movement. You’ll feel a gentle motion as the table lowers — not a harsh push — making it both effective and comfortable.
3️⃣ Targeted Realignment:
Precise adjustments realign the spine, relieving nerve pressure and restoring proper motion. Many patients feel immediate relief or progressive improvement as their body adapts.
4️⃣ Support for Overall Wellness:
Over time, improved alignment enhances the nervous system’s function, supporting better posture, mobility, and overall vitality.
