A Gentle, Precise Approach to Chiropractic Care—No Twisting, No Cracking
Many people hesitate to see a chiropractor because they fear the twisting, cracking, and popping commonly associated with traditional adjustments. At Peak Chiropractic, we take a gentle and precise approach—no harsh movements, no sudden forces. Our advanced technology ensures that adjustments are safe, effective, and tailored to your body’s needs.
A Safe & Comfortable Chiropractic Experience
If you’ve been hesitant to visit a chiropractor because you’re worried about twisting, cracking, or popping, we completely understand. That’s why at Peak Chiropractic, we take a gentle, targeted approach that keeps your body in a neutral, relaxed position during adjustments.
Here’s what makes our approach different:
- No twisting, no cracking, no popping—Just precise, controlled adjustments
- Advanced imaging technology that measures misalignments to a hundredth of a millimeter
- Minimal force needed—small adjustments make a huge impact on upper cervical alignment
- Safe, neutral position—you’ll typically be lying on your side, ensuring comfort and stability
We focus on accuracy, not force, ensuring that your spine is adjusted the right way, every time.


How Our Upper Cervical Chiropractic Adjustments Work
Our advanced chiropractic technique uses a drop headpiece to apply just the right amount of force while keeping you completely relaxed. Here’s how it works:
- You lie in a neutral position, typically on your side.
- The drop headpiece gently moves to facilitate the adjustment.
- Gravity and a precise force guide your vertebra back into alignment.
- No excessive pressure or twisting—your body is naturally guided into the correct position.
By allowing gravity and precision to work together, we restore alignment without the aggressive techniques found in traditional chiropractic care.
The Importance of the 45-Minute Rest Period
After your first adjustment, we have you rest for 45 minutes to allow your body to adapt to its new alignment. This resting period is crucial because:
- It helps your body hold the adjustment longer
- It prevents your spine from shifting back out of place too quickly
- It allows your nervous system to integrate the correction
Unlike traditional chiropractic methods that require multiple weekly visits, our goal is to help your body maintain alignment naturally so you need fewer adjustments over time.
By focusing on precise corrections and proper post-adjustment care, we help you heal efficiently and sustainably—without unnecessary visits for the rest of your life.

They are very personable and you can tell that genuinely care about your well being.
Very impressed with Peak since day one! The staff is absolutely amazing. They are very personable and you can tell that genuinely care about your well being. I have been dealing with weekly migraines for almost 20 years. I was never willing to go down a more traditional pharmaceutical path of treating symptoms. I wanted to get to the root cause which is literally Peak’s vision behind every patient. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel and I could not be more excited!Read Original Review
They are great people, and I always feel better walking out of the office
Peak Chiropractic has taken great care of me over the past few months. They are the only chiropractic clinic in Idaho with a full neck CT scan, which helps them better understand how to adjust you vs traditional X-rays. They are great people, and I always feel better walking out of the office!Read Original Review
I have had more energy, less pain in all areas of my body, and I've been sleeping like a baby.
I truly don't know where to begin. I had never heard of upper cervical chiropractic care prior to meeting Dr. John and Dr. Kyara. However, I had been going to a chiropractor every two weeks for the last 18 years for "pain management". Over time, my body started to expect an adjustment right at that two week mark and the pain in my back, neck, and jaw became unbearable, even a few days before my regularly scheduled adjustment. I have always trusted chiropractic care, but one twisted neck adjustment left me with a long lasting clicking in my neck and the consistency of my symptoms left me feeling defeated, especially when the vertigo kicked in. I had no energy to get through even the slightest daily activities and I became frustrated at the thought of how much time and money I have spent to only receive such temporary relief. When I walked into Peak chiropractic, I was warmly welcomed by both doctors and was given a tour of the facility, where Dr. John showed me all of the technological recourses they would use to access my spine. The doctors took the time to educate me on EVERYTHING I was to expect in my healing journey and what to do to allow my body to hold the adjustments and heal itself. To my surprise, upper cervical care doesn't involve the twisting and cracking that causes more symptoms than what I came in with. In fact, I could expect to pain free in just a few short weeks (what a relief)! How is that possible you might ask? Trust me, I didn't believe it either. I was told that the misalignment in the top two bones of my spine were likely the cause of all the symptoms I had been experiencing since I was a kid. We immediately got to work and after only one adjustment, I felt like my body was able hold its adjustment longer than it has ever before. Mind you, I am still going through my program with Peak Chiropractic, but after this last adjustment, that consistent clicking in my neck that has never been absent before, left for the very first time. Even after these very few weeks, I have had more energy, less pain in all areas of my body, and I've been sleeping like a baby. I just wanted to scream it from the rooftops! For the first time in 18 years, I am feeling hopeful. I wish everyone knew about upper cervical care, so if you are someone who experiences similar symptoms, please go see Dr. John and Dr. Kyara. I promise your life is going to change. Mine definitely has!Read Original Review
