For pediatric patients, the Gonstead technique focuses on avoiding long-lever adjustments to minimize unnecessary forces on the developing spine. Specific analyses are conducted for various spinal regions accommodating the pediatric population. The technique allows for adaptation to the patient’s size by using different hand contacts and precise corrections without introducing excessive forces. 

In pregnancy care, the Gonstead technique provides adjustments tailored to expectant mothers by offering comfortable positions on specialized tables like the knee-chest table. It emphasizes adapting to different age groups and their unique needs through varied hand contacts and setup choices. Overall, the Gonstead technique is known for its specificity, adaptability, and focus on minimizing unnecessary stress on spinal joints and neurological components in both pediatric and pregnancy chiropractic care.
