How The Thompson Drop-Table Works
This is a technique that was originated in the 1950’s by Dr. Clay Thompson. The technique uses an adjusting table with segmented drops. These drops lower various parts of the patient’s spine quickly, either in the dorsal, lumbar, or pelvic areas, depending on which area is being treated. The quick drops allow Dr. Zach and Dr. Mitch to thrust on your spine at a much more powerful speed, using the most minimal amount of force to do it.
The initial thrust begins the movement of the spine, and the drop of the table takes the area of the spine being worked on through its full range of motion. This promotes better, easier, more accurate adjustments, and swifter healing. We love it and so will you!

Patient Testimonials
Holly P.
Midwest Chiropractic is truly the best chiropractic care in Minnesota. We drive an hour to be seen by Dr. Zach and Dr. Mitch. They have helped everyone in our family from herniated discs, to chronic pain, to injury recovery of the ankle and knee-that PT alone was not helping. I could go on and on about what makes their approach different than others.

I recently had a fantastic experience at Midwest Chiropractic and Wellness working with Dr. Zach! The entire team at the clinic is super knowledgeable and friendly. Scheduling is easy, and I completely trust them with my care. They've been incredibly helpful in creating a clear treatment plan, and the results from the softwave treatment machine on my stubborn hamstring injury were excellent. I highly recommend them for their expertise and top-notch patient care.
