What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a profession which specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions which are due to mechanical dysfunctions of the joints, and their effects on the nervous system.
Chiropractors use their hands to adjust the joints of your spine and other parts of the body where signs of restriction of movement are found. This improves mobility and relieves pain. Your bodies own healing process, (which we normally recognise in its ability to heal bruises, cuts and broken bones) will then be able to get on with the task of improving your health. The treatment is known as an 'adjustment' or manipulation.
What do chiropractors treat?
Today's Chiropractors treat many thousand of patients each week for a variety of conditions affecting all parts of the body. They support their treatment with advice on work, diet and exercise. |
