At 302 Chiropractic, we specialize in structural correction, a focused approach to chiropractic care that targets the underlying cause of various health issues rather than just treating symptoms. Structural misalignments in the spine can affect your overall health by disrupting the nervous system's communication from the brain to the body.
Our structural correction process begins with a thorough assessment of your spine using state-of-the-art diagnostic tools. This evaluation helps us identify deviations from normal spine alignment and understand their impact on your health. Based on these findings, we develop a personalized treatment plan aimed at correcting these misalignments through precise, controlled adjustments.
The goal of structural correction is to restore your spine to its optimal architecture, thereby enhancing your body’s natural ability to heal and maintain better health. This foundational approach can lead to improved mobility, reduced pain, and enhanced performance, contributing to a higher quality of life. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, recurring injuries, or you simply want to improve your overall physical function, structural correction may offer the comprehensive solution you need.

Sacro Occipital Technique (SOT) is a comprehensive, gentle, and innovative method of chiropractic care provided at 302 Chiropractic. This technique focuses on the relationship between the sacrum (base of the spine) and the occiput (base of the skull) and aims to enhance the natural flow of cerebrospinal fluid. SOT also includes methods for assessing and balancing the body's biomechanics, neurology, and organ function, with specific attention to the pelvic and cranial regions.
Dr. Epps uses SOT to address and correct imbalances through specific adjustments, using gravity blocks, and gentle manipulations. This approach not only supports structural integrity but also influences the body’s neurology, providing relief from pain and discomfort, and promoting better health overall.
SOT chiropractic is effective for patients of all ages and is particularly beneficial for those experiencing headaches, TMJ issues, back pain, sciatica, and other neurological or musculoskeletal issues. By aligning the body’s structures and improving function, SOT helps foster a balanced, healthy state that supports overall wellness and vitality.

DescriptionAt 302 Chiropractic, we utilize the Activator Method. This method employs a small, hand-held instrument called the Activator Adjusting Instrument to deliver gentle, low-force impulses to the spine and extremities. The precision of the Activator allows for targeted adjustments that are both effective and safe, making it an ideal choice for patients of all ages, including children and seniors.
The Activator Method is unique in its approach because it is based on specific protocols that test how the body responds to different directional stresses. This helps identify dysfunctional areas in the spine and related structures. Dr. Epps uses these findings to determine the exact location and appropriate timing for the adjustments, aiming to restore spinal balance gently and effectively.
This technique is particularly beneficial for those who may prefer a softer chiropractic approach or may be sensitive to traditional manual adjustments. It is effective in treating back pain, neck pain, headaches, and other musculoskeletal conditions by improving spinal motion and overall body function. text goes here

The Toggle Recoil Technique is a specialized method of chiropractic care that focuses specifically on the upper cervical area — the uppermost part of the spine, which includes the atlas and axis vertebrae near the base of the skull. This precise and refined approach is designed to correct subtle misalignments in the upper cervical spine, which can have profound effects on the central nervous system and overall health.
At 302 Chiropractic, Dr. Epps is expertly trained in the Toggle Recoil Technique. This method involves a quick, gentle touch and a specific, controlled adjustment to the first cervical vertebra (atlas). The adjustment is followed by a quick release, allowing the vertebra to "toggle" back into its natural position. This "recoil" is essential as it allows the body to reset and begin the healing process.
The integrity of the upper cervical alignment is crucial because it can influence everything from neurological function to systemic wellness. Misalignments in this area can lead to various symptoms and conditions throughout the body, including migraines, vertigo, blood pressure irregularities, and more. By restoring proper alignment to the upper cervical spine, the Toggle Recoil Technique helps to enhance nerve transmission and support the body's innate healing abilities.
This chiropractic method is not only effective in treating specific symptoms but is also used as a preventative measure to maintain optimal health and well-being. It is suitable for patients of all ages seeking a non-invasive, drug-free approach to health care.

The Diversified Technique is a cornerstone of chiropractic treatment and a primary method used at 302 Chiropractic. It is renowned for its efficacy in improving spinal alignment, enhancing joint function, and facilitating better nervous system function. This technique is characterized by a high-velocity, low-amplitude thrust that delivers precise adjustments to misaligned spinal and joint areas, promoting optimal movement and alignment.
The technique is a thorough analysis of the spine to identify specific dysfunctions. Each adjustment is tailored to the patient's unique spinal biomechanics. This personalized approach ensures that adjustments are not only effective but also comfortable for the patient.
The Diversified Technique is versatile and can address a wide range of issues from acute back pain and headaches to chronic musculoskeletal conditions. It is known for its ability to provide immediate relief from pain and discomfort, while also contributing to long-term health benefits such as improved posture, increased mobility, and enhanced bodily function.
At 302 Chiropractic, we use the Diversified Technique to help our patients achieve their health goals, whether they're looking to recover from an injury, manage chronic pain, or improve their overall physical performance and wellness.

At 302 Chiropractic, we offer the Webster Technique, a specific chiropractic analysis and diversified adjustment protocol. This technique is particularly tailored for pregnant women, focusing on establishing balance in the pelvis and reducing undue stress to the uterus and supporting ligaments. This can be crucial for prenatal care as it may facilitate safer, easier births.
The Webster Technique involves a gentle adjustment specifically designed to maintain proper pelvic balance and function. This not only helps in managing discomfort during pregnancy but also optimizes fetal positioning, which is beneficial for childbirth. Our trained chiropractors use this technique to reduce the effects of sacral subluxation/SI joint dysfunction, which in turn can improve the mother's comfort throughout pregnancy and reduce instances of dystocia (difficult labor).
Our approach with the Webster Technique is holistic and supportive, aiming to enhance the neuro-biomechanical function in the pelvis. With regular adjustments, pregnant mothers can experience a decrease in pain and an improvement in overall physical function, which can lead to a more positive pregnancy and childbirth experience.
At 302 Chiropractic, we are committed to supporting expectant mothers with compassionate, comprehensive care that addresses their unique needs during this pivotal time. Whether you're seeking relief from pregnancy-related discomfort or proactive prenatal care, the Webster Technique may offer the supportive solution you need.
