Each chiropractor employs techniques (or treatments) that he has learned and chosen to utilize in his practice. While attending Palmer College of Chiropractic, Dr. Jenkins studied many techniques with a special emphasis on the Atlas Orthogonal Technique and other low force adjusting techniques. He has continued to study and learn since graduating college and opening his private practice.
