The Gonstead Method

What is Gonstead?

The Gonstead method, also know as the Gonstead technique, is the gold standard in “hands on” chiropractic care developed by Clarence S. Gonstead. Dr. Gonstead’s interest in human body mechanics continued to motivate him to perfect his system over his fifty years of work. He found there was no substitute or better method for analyzing or correcting spinal misalignments than with a pair of skilled chiropractic hands, complimented with modern diagnostic techniques.

Gonstead Chiropractic

The Gonstead system has only one purpose, and it is the finding and correction of a spinal subluxation, helping you get rid of whatever ailments or “dis-ease” you are experiencing. Only by finding the root cause of any problem can we resolve it. With over 300 hours of conference training on the Gonstead Chiropractic Technique combined, Dr. Steinarsson and Dr. Dagnyjarson practice the Gonstead Method exclusively. They are the only Gonstead Chiropractors in the Jupiter area and two of only a handful in the state of Florida. Dr. Steinarsson and Dr. Dagnyjarson are able to feel exactly where subluxations are located, confirm their findings with weight bearing full spine, digital X-rays, apply the appropriate amount of gentle force, and actually feel the movement of the vertebrae or joint. Adjustments are very specific and adjusted to meet your individual needs.

“Our body has the innate ability to heal itself from within when the spine is properly aligned, without any nerve interference from the brain and spinal cord, through the spinal nerves, to every gland, muscle, organ and cell in the body. The nervous system controls every single function in your body.”
