Dr. C.S. Gonstead graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 1923. Soon after, he started developing
the most thorough, comprehensive, and specific form of chiropractic for the analysis and correction of vertebral subluxations
(misaligned spinal segments). For over forty years, thousands of patients traveled to his Mt. Horeb, WI clinic to get
adjusted for problems associated with a variety of health issues. The sickest of the sick found health through the Gonstead
Method of chiropractic care. Having seen the great results achieved by Dr. Gonstead's work, other chiropractors requested
that he teach them his unique approach. The Gonstead Method has been shown to be the "gold standard"
in chiropractic…a standard by which all other chiropractic techniques measure themselves. It is this superiority
and specificity to correcting spinal problems that has drawn Dr. Van Ness to the Gonstead Method…bringing the
BEST in chiropractic to the northwest suburbs.
The Gonstead
Method specifically focuses on the health of the disc. When a spinal bone becomes subluxated,
the disc (shock absorber between the bones) can be compressed and bulge, thus irritating surrounding spinal nerves. The
bone must be realigned for health to be restored. A specific Gonstead adjustment is the most natural, least invasive
approach to correcting subluxations and improving overall health.
