What
Is Chiropractic Care? ::
Chiropractic
is safe and effective treatment for many types of neuromusculoskeletal
(relating to the nerves, muscles, and joints) and other
conditions. It is based on the scientific fact that your
body is under the control of your brain and nervous system.
When spinal or extremity joints become restricted, your
nerves become irritated, causing pain and other health problems.
Chiropractic involves the science of detecting
these abnormal joint restrictions (or subluxations), and
restoring proper joint motion & neurologic functioning
through manipulation or the adjustment. In our practices,
we assess & treat many other contributing factors of
your problem including the muscles and other soft tissues,
as well as your lifestyle, diet/nutrition, exercise, ergonomics,
and posture. Since chiropractic physicians also receive
extensive diagnostic training, we can help you to decide
if you would be likely to benefit from chiropractic care,
or if you should consult a medical doctor or another health
care provider.
