Did you know?
- Chiropractors focus on the spine and the nervous system and how their imbalances can cause pain.
- Chiropractors use manipulations or adjustments on vertebrae that have shifted out of alignment. They use their hands to apply a controlled, sudden force to the joints that restores spinal movement. The result is a decrease in pain and improved mobility.
- The expected result of chiropractic treatment is an end to or relief from the pain.
- A Chiropractor focuses on the relationship between the body's main structures – the skeleton, the muscles and the nerves – and the patient's health.
- Chiropractors do not prescribe drugs or perform surgical procedures, although they do refer patients for these services if they are medically indicated.
- Although the chiropractic profession is primarily based on the use of the spinal adjustment, many other techniques exist for treating the spine, as well as other joints and tissues.
- A modern chiropractor may specialize in spinal adjustments only, or may use a wide range of methods intended to address an array of neuromusculoskeletal and general health issues.
- Spinal manipulation, which chiropractors call "spinal adjustment" or "chiropractic adjustment", is the most common treatment used in chiropractic care.
