Dr. Martinez is trained in multiple chiropractic techniques — so he can choose the right approach for your body, your comfort level, and your specific condition.
A handheld instrument delivers a precise, gentle impulse to the spine — restoring motion and reducing pain without manual twisting or cracking. Ideal for patients who prefer a lighter touch.
Delivers rapid, gentle corrections at approximately 12–14 impulses per second. Highly specific and comfortable — often used for patients who are sensitive to traditional manual adjustments.
A gentle traction technique using a specialized table. Particularly effective for herniated discs, sciatica, and spinal stenosis — it decompresses the disc without surgery or medication.
The traditional manual adjustment — refined and adapted to each patient. Fast, targeted, and effective for most spinal and extremity conditions.
Uses a specially adapted table that drops a fraction of an inch during a quick thrust — making the adjustment comfortable and reducing the force needed to restore joint function.
Beyond the spine — Dr. Martinez adjusts shoulders, knees, elbows, wrists, ankles, and feet. Especially useful for athletes, runners, and anyone with joint pain outside the spine.
