Looking for a gentle chiropractor in Salt Lake City who will not lock you into a long-term plan? Dr. Jonathan Leusden, DC has practiced low-force, neutral-position chiropractic care in the Salt Lake City area since 2006, using a light-force method called Open Source Technique (OST). No cracking. No twisting. No end-range manipulation.

Three Things Built Into Every Visit

Fewer Visits, By Design

Visits here are spaced by how you respond, not by a schedule set on the first day. Because each adjustment is precise and the assessment is thorough, changes tend to hold longer between visits. Most patients move from an initial visit, to a follow-up at one to two weeks, to a visit around four weeks out, then taper to monthly or every six to eight weeks as things stabilize. Fewer visits is the actual goal.

A Thorough Exam Before Any Adjustment

Every visit starts with a real assessment, not a routine. That means checking how your spine, pelvis, ribs, and joints are actually moving that day, rather than running through a preset sequence. If something does not need to be adjusted, it is not adjusted. This is part of why the care can be lighter and still be effective.

No Long-Term Contracts or Prepaid Plans

There is no prepaid package, no required schedule, and no pressure to commit to months of care up front. You will know within the first visit or two whether this approach is helping. If it is not the right fit, you will be told directly.

Less Travel Time, More of Your Life Back

Fewer visits means less time driving, less time parked in a waiting room, and fewer appointments to work around. For people juggling a downtown Salt Lake City job, kids, or a long commute already, that adds up fast.
