What actually causes the “pop” during a chiropractic adjustment? 👀
Contrary to popular belief, it is NOT bones grinding together.
That sound is simply gas being released from the joint, similar to opening a soda can. Inside your joints is fluid and gas, and when the joint moves a certain way, pressure changes can create that popping sound.
A few important things to know:
✔️ The sound is normal
✔️ It is not harmful
✔️ Louder does NOT mean better
✔️ Some effective adjustments make very little noise at all
The goal of an adjustment is not to “make things crack.” The goal is to improve motion, function, and nervous system communication through specific chiropractic care.

If you’re getting adjusted the exact same way every single visit…🚩
…without any analysis to determine what your body actually needs that day, you should probably ask why.

Your spine changes.
Your nervous system changes.
Your body adapts and heals over time.

That’s the ‘Gonstead Difference’ – we focus on detailed analysis and specificity…every single visit.
We want to know:
✔️ Which segments actually need to be adjusted
✔️ Which areas should be left alone
✔️ How your body is responding to care

Good chiropractic care should be based on what your nervous system needs THAT day, not a memorized routine.
