Does chiropractic adjusting make noise?

0

Chiropractic adjustments are frequently accompanied by a ‘pop’. Each joint along the spine contains a fluid, in which nitrogen gas is dissolved. As I adjust the spine by hand, pressure on the stuck joint is relieved, pressure in the fluid drops, the nitrogen comes out of solution to form a bubble, and the bubble pops.
