Gonstead Technique in Colorado Springs
When something’s off in your spine, guessing isn’t good enough. The Gonstead technique is built on precision. It’s a detailed method of spinal analysis and adjustment that targets the exact source of the problem, so your body can heal faster and more completely. For patients who have tried other approaches without lasting relief, the specificity of Gonstead at Hexis Chiropractic is often what makes the difference.
A System Built Around Structural Specificity
Gonstead treats the spine like an engineering problem with a real solution. Dr. Peter uses a thorough analysis process that includes watching how you move, taking X-rays to see what’s structurally happening, and feeling the spine for areas of tension and dysfunction.
Every adjustment is planned and delivered to the specific vertebra causing the issue. Nothing is random. Nothing is rushed. That level of detail is what sets this technique apart from more generalized approaches.
The Conditions This Approach Reaches Best
Gonstead is especially effective for people who’ve been dealing with pain that keeps returning. It works well for:
- Low back pain and sciatica
- Neck pain and stiffness
- Digestive discomfort, including heartburn and indigestion
- Radiating leg or arm pain
- Headaches and migraines
- Sleep disruption

Precision Care From Your First Visit
Your first visit starts with a thorough look at how your spine is aligned and how it’s moving. Our chiropractor takes X-rays to understand the structural picture before any adjustment is made. From there, care is targeted, specific, and adapted as your spine responds. You’ll know what’s being addressed and why, and you’ll never feel like you’re just going through the motions.
