Ocala Pettibon System

Among the varying treatment methods used at Chiropractic USA of Jasmine Square is the Pettibon System Technique in Ocala. Dr. Renny Edelson, DC, uses this technique to provide you with the best possible Ocala chiropractic care.

Dr. Burt R. Pettibon, the innovator behind the Ocala Pettibon System Technique, developed it in the 1960's as a response to the dubious quality of chiropractic at the time. The rigorous system of analysis and treatment in the Pettibon System Technique in Ocala set the standard for what chiropractic could be at the time.

Dr. Pettibon set about an ambitious program of scientific analysis of chiropractic treatment by taking X-rays of the spines of a number of patients and students receiving care from chiropractic institutions — the outcome of this treatment was alarming. Dr. Pettibon discovered that most of the people receiving treatment didn't show any difference at all in the actual positioning of their vertebrae. Much more troublesome, however, was the fact that those who did show a difference were in worse condition than when they started. Therefore, the doctor embarked on a dramatic revision of care, using the hard data of X-ray analysis to substantiate the gains he made for his patient's health.

Generally, the Ocala Pettibon System Technique involves three stages of care: by-hand chiropractic adjustment, in-home individual exercises, and the application of weights and braces for corrective care. The chiropractic adjustments are made based the patient's X-rays, along 41 lines and 23 angles, and are extremely precise in their application. The exercises prescribed by the treatment program of the Pettibon System Technique in Ocala are intended to supplement and extend the effectiveness of the initial adjustments. Likewise, the weights and corrective braces work to gradually correct bad habits and subtle positioning of the spine in ways that could not be accomplished in the brief moments that by-hand adjustments are applied.

The results of Ocala Pettibon System Technique are remarkable, backed up by the evidence of X-ray analysis, as well as the anecdotal and survey-confirmed evidence of greater well-being among patients. In fact, the Pettibon System Technique in Ocala is so effective and scientifically sound that it is often prescribed for scoliosis in all ages of patients, from infants to the elderly.
