What is Chiropractic?
A Natural, non-invasive approach to health care
Chiropractic
is based on the scientific fact that your body is a self-regulating,
self-healing organism, controlled by the brain, spinal cord and nerves
of the body. The bones of the spine are called vertebrae. They protect
the spinal cord and the nerves which supply your body with information
from the brain. When they become misaligned or lose their normal
motion, it creates nerve irritation which causes malfunction of the
tissues and organs throughout the body thus leading to symptoms and
poor health.
Chiropractic is a form of natural health care that focuses on treating a patient without the use of drugs or medicines. Doctors of Chiropractic, more commonly known as chiropractors, are primary health care providers licensed in all 50 states, and are recognized by governmental health care programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, Workers' Compensation programs and more. Every year, more than 30 million Americans see chiropractors as part of the regular health care programs and with over 84,000 licensed chiropractors nationwide and more than 10,000 students currently enrolled in chiropractic school, it is the fastest growing health care profession.
Chiropractors
frequently care for individuals with problems, such as headaches, joint
pain, neck pain, low back pain and sciatica. Chiropractors also care
for patients with osteoarthritis, spinal disk conditions, carpal tunnel
syndrome, tendonitis, sprains, and strains. However, the scope of
conditions that chiropractors manage or provide care for is not limited
to the common pains and problems listed above. Since the nerves of your
body are what control how well it works. Any spinal misalignments at
any level in your spine can cause your body to not work properly and
lead to symptoms and ultimately poor health.
