About

Howe Gentle's low force chiropractic technique is performed by a series of measurements and gentle thrusts. Measurements are accomplished by applying slight pressure to specific muscles, bones or ligaments. Minute changes in the position of the feet are then observed. Special treatment shoes assist in this analysis. When a misalignment is detected, a very specific, low force, high velocity thrust is utilized to bring about an osseous (bony) correction. This adjustment directs your body to the realigned position. The healthy flow of energy is restored and the healing process continues long after the treatment.

Dr. Ginny Howe is a 1983 Cum Laude graduate of Life Chiropractic College West in Hayward, California. Early in her career she adopted a gentle chiropractic technique that she learned studying with Dr Richard van Rumpt from 1980-1987. She continues to refine her approach through on-going seminars and study of new developments in the chiropractic science.

Using her gentle approach, Dr. Howe found a way to provide painless adjustments for most structural problems. This is extremely valuable in cases of trauma and injury. Because it features gentle alignments, it is safe for pregnant women, children, seniors, and those with acute traumatic injury.

Dr. Howe also draws upon first hand knowledge of Tai Chi, Qi Gong, Yoga, swimming, weight training and personal exercise routines to assist you in developing on-going wellness routines. Your treatments at Howe Chiropractic will include counseling for on-going self-care and advice regarding which of these disciplines will work best for you.

Dr. Howe maintains professional relationships with many health care practitioners and will recommend additional help when appropriate.
