The Difference Between an Adjustment and Great Chiropractic Care

The Difference Between an Adjustment and Great Chiropractic Care

From CMJJ Headquarters

September 17, 2026

What if every chiropractor was completely focused and present during every adjustment? 🧠⚡

Dr. Stratton Poulson shares why he believes there’s a profound difference between simply going through the motions and delivering a truly intentional chiropractic experience.

In this clip from Coffee Time with Carlos Machado, Stratton talks about the importance of presence, focus, and intention during chiropractic adjustments—and the powerful reactions he’s seen from patients when they experience that level of care.

For Stratton, the goal isn’t simply to perform an adjustment. It’s to be completely locked in with the patient and deliver the full experience the adjustment is capable of providing.

His belief? If every chiropractor could consistently deliver that kind of experience, “everyone in the world would have a chiropractor.”

A fascinating conversation about chiropractic care, chiropractic adjustments, patient experience, presence, focus, recovery, and the mindset behind great patient care.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
