What is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is an alternative medical treatment that improves patient health by manipulating the muscular, skeletal, and nervous system. Problems in the spine can interfere with nervous system function leading to an array of potential health problems. Chiropractors have a deep understanding of this and believe that maintaining proper alignment in the spine is crucial to health and wellbeing.

Though techniques may vary depending upon the practitioner, chiropractors generally use a variety of spinal and soft tissue adjustments to release built up pressure in the joints, balance the muscular system, realign the spine, increase blood circulation, and restore proper nervous system functions.

Many chiropractors also work with patients to develop healthier lifestyles choices. When the body becomes balanced, health can be achieved.

Chiropractic Benefits

Everything in the body depends on proper nervous system function and because if this, chiropractic care can benefit a vast range of ailments. These are just some of the most common benefits:

    Chiropractic Treatment

    Chiropractic treatments can vary depending on the practitioner, and the patient's needs. Practitioners will often readjust the neck, back, hips, and any related soft tissue to achieve the desired balance. This allows for proper blood flow and nervous system function.

    Treatments may include hot/cold therapy, movement therapy, ultrasound and cold-laser therapy, or massage therapy in addition to the actual spinal adjustment. These are used in preparation for, or to help sustain the effects of the actual chiropractic adjustment.

    Many practitioners also offer lifestyle guidance to help patients recover quickly and maintain optimum health.
