What is a Chiropractor?
Chiropractors are physicians who specialize in the treatment of musculoskeletal, physiological and biomechanical disorders of the body. Chiropractors use a variety of specialized techniques to realign the body and return the spine and surrounding structures to normal health. In addition, chiropractors help guide the patient to overall health through instruction in disease prevention, health promotion, proper nutrition and lifestyle modification.

Chiropractors treat a variety of symptoms and disorders including low back pain, sciatica, neck and shoulder problems, headaches, numbness and tingling in the extremities, foot and ankle problems, whiplash, and degenerative disorders.

What do Chiropractors do?

Chiropractors do a thorough evaluation to determine areas of malalignment and dysfunction commonly known as subluxations. A subluxation is a misalignment of the bones that can result in nerve pressure and irritation which can lead to discomfort, pain and decreased range of motion.

Using specialized adjustments, the chiropractor will help the spine and surrounding joints to realign and help unlock fixed structures. The chiropractor will establish a therapy program for rehabilitation and maintenance which may include postural exercises, stretches, strengthening exercises and ergonomic education.
