How Does Y-Strap Adjustment of Dr. Robert Caruso Work?

Our patients at Caruso Family Chiropractic are finding relief from their spinal and neck compression after undergoing this therapy with Dr. Caruso. This is part of our clinic’s list of chiropractic services in El Cajon, CA. If you have chronic pain, this therapy may be considered.

During your session, Dr. Caruso will wrap the lower portion of the strap around your neck and back of your head. Dr. Caruso will use the body axis of the strap to apply force after it’s aligned with the spine during a chiropractic adjustment. When the strap is secured, Dr. Caruso will tighten it in the middle to form a Y shape. Our chiropractor will use the handgrip to pull the strap away from your body. This movement will assist him with spinal decompression.

Dr. Caruso will look into the root cause of your chronic pain. In some cases, he may request some imaging tests to help him come up with the right diagnosis. If he recommends Y-strap adjustment, he may integrate other chiropractic options:
