What is Chiropractic?

   Although chiropractic has long been recognized for helping back pain, it is not just for backs.  Chiropractic is primarily spinal care, though we work on any joint in the body, including the feet.  The spinal cord is protected by the 24 moving bones that make up your spine.  Many everyday activities can cause the joints of the spinal bones to be stressed in ways that cause malpositioning or motion, resulting in a spinal malfunction called a Subluxation.  A Subluxation can irritate nerves, muscles, or other soft tissues compromising function and causing pain, inflammation, numbness, weakness, etc.  A chiropractic doctor is trained to find these areas of spinal malfunction and help restore joint function to a more normal position or motion.  This is achieved by providing a specific force (adjustment) in a precise direction to normalize spinal function and avoid bone and soft tissue degeneration.  Chiropractic is a low-risk, drug-free approach to health and healing.
