Chiropractie Den Haag
Different treatment techniques, tailored to your body and symptoms
No two bodies are the same, and not every condition requires the same treatment. That’s why, at Chiropractie Den Haag, we look beyond a single standard approach.
Our team has expertise in a range of Chiropractic treatment techniques, from traditional manual adjustments to specialized treatment methods for the spine, joints, and craniofacial region.
Which technique is best suited to you depends on several factors, including your symptoms, age, physical condition, and the findings of your examination.

What are Chiropractic techniques?
Chiropractic focuses on examining and treating musculoskeletal conditions, with particular attention to the spine and joints. Chiropractors use different techniques to influence joint mobility and reduce symptoms such as pain and stiffness.
Some techniques involve quick, controlled movements performed by hand. Others use specialized treatment instruments, a treatment table, or slow, gentle movements. The choice of technique never depends solely on your condition. We also consider what is safe, appropriate, and comfortable for you.

Overview of Chiropractic techniques
Diversified Technique
Traditional Chiropractic treatment of the spine and joints
The Diversified Technique is one of the most commonly used techniques in Chiropractic. The Chiropractor uses their hands to treat a joint with a quick, controlled movement.
The goal is to improve joint mobility and reduce movement-related pain or stiffness. Sometimes, you may hear a popping or cracking sound. This sound is not necessary for a successful treatment.
When is this technique used?
Lower back pain and stiffness
Neck pain and limited mobility
Joint mobility problems
Thompson Drop Technique
Targeted adjustments using a specialized treatment table
With the Thompson Drop Technique, also known as the Drop Technique, the Chiropractor uses a specialized treatment table with individual sections that can drop a few centimeters. This movement allows the Chiropractor to deliver a targeted adjustment using relatively little manual force.
The technique may be used for patients who find other forms of manual adjustment less comfortable or less suitable.
When is this technique used?
Back and pelvic pain
Limited joint mobility
Situations where a modified adjustment technique is preferred

Activator Methods®
A precise, instrument-assisted treatment
With Activator Methods, the Chiropractor uses a small, handheld instrument to deliver a quick, controlled impulse to a joint. This allows the Chiropractor to perform adjustments without the rapid twisting movements used in some manual techniques. This approach may be suitable when a gentler or differently performed treatment is preferred.
When is this technique used?
Neck and back pain
Joint stiffness
Treatments where an instrument-assisted technique is appropriate

Which Chiropractic technique is right for you?
At Chiropractie Den Haag, treatment begins with a discussion of your symptoms and an examination of your musculoskeletal system. We consider your medical history, daily activities, range of motion, and any factors that may contribute to your symptoms.
Based on this assessment, we determine which treatment is appropriate for you. This may involve a manual adjustment, an instrument-assisted technique, or another form of treatment. Sometimes, we combine different techniques. And when Chiropractic care does not seem suitable, we discuss whether other types of care or additional examinations would be advisable.
“The starting point is not which technique we want to use, but which approach is right for your individual situation.”
