Logan Basic Technique
At Focus Chiropractic, Dr. Kolleen Gregory and Dr. Richard Kachanon frequently utilize the Logan Basic Technique as a cornerstone of their specialized pregnancy care. Originating from the work of Dr. Hugh B. Logan in 1931, this approach zeros in on the sacrum—the foundational base of your spine. The guiding principle is straightforward yet profound: if the sacrum is misaligned, it's likely to cause a ripple effect, impacting the rest of the spine and, by extension, your overall health.
Logan Basic Technique (LBT) is more than just spinal alignment; it's a comprehensive method that also examines the biomechanics of the pelvis and spine, both in their healthy state and when disrupted by sacral misalignments. The technique acknowledges that a misaligned sacrum doesn't just affect your spine; it can also lead to muscle imbalances and even neurological issues, affecting various bodily functions.
When it comes to maternity care, the importance of a well-aligned sacrum and pelvis cannot be overstated. Pregnancy often brings about muscle imbalances, particularly in the lower back and hips. Logan Basic Technique offers a range of strategies designed to alleviate these common pregnancy-related discomforts, facilitating optimal pelvic function throughout this important life stage.
By concentrating on foundational issues rather than mere symptoms, LBT aligns perfectly with Focus Chiropractic's commitment to holistic wellness. It's not just about treating what ails you; it's about empowering your body's inherent ability for health, making this technique an essential element of the nurturing, specialized care you can expect in our Pasadena practice.
