Gonstead Method in Round Rock
The Gonstead Method is a unique approach in chiropractic care that focuses on finding and correcting the exact cause of your discomfort. Instead of relying on general adjustments or chasing “pops” for sound alone, this system uses a detailed, multi-step analysis that includes full-spine X-rays, gentle palpation, motion assessment, and instrumentation.
A Method Shaped by Personal Experience
Dr. Harris was introduced to Gonstead early in life. After breaking his hip at 13 while playing football, he began care with Dr. Jeff Pedersen in Arlington, TX. His precise approach helped him heal, and Dr. Harris continued to see him throughout his athletic career. In college, Dr. Pedersen treated a severe ankle fracture sustained while playing football.
He saw firsthand how targeted adjustments could improve recovery. This mentorship inspired Dr. Harris to study under Dr. Larry Troxell, one of Dr. Gonstead’s own students. He has used this method throughout his 21 years in practice because it consistently delivers results for patients of all ages.
How Gonstead Care Stands Apart
Viral “pop and click” videos may be entertaining, but they often involve quick, generalized movements without thorough analysis. Gonstead is different. Every adjustment is backed by clinical reasoning, ensuring that the exact area in need of correction is addressed and nothing more. This specificity reduces unnecessary movement of healthy joints and promotes more consistent, measurable outcomes.
Real Results, Real Lives Changed
One of Dr. Harris’s most memorable patients was a 28-year-old woman living with spastic paralysis in her left hand. Daily tasks like caring for her children or exercising were nearly impossible. “After identifying a misalignment at the top of her spine that had been missed elsewhere, a series of precise Gonstead adjustments helped her regain full, pain-free function. It was life-changing, both for her and me as her chiropractor,” he says.
