Frequently asked questions

A chiropractor is a licensed healthcare professional who focuses on your body’s capability to heal itself. They specialize in caring for your neuromusculoskeletal system, which includes the bones, nerves, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Here’s what chiropractors do: Spinal Adjustments: Chiropractors use spinal manipulation to effect change in the spine, and central nervous system. By applying force to specific joints in the spine, they aim to improve alignment. This can help manage back and neck pain. Holistic Approach: Chiropractic care extends beyond spinal adjustments. It includes other treatments like exercise. The goal is to enhance the body’s ability to self-heal. Body Function and Health: Chiropractors believe that when the neuromusculoskeletal system functions optimally, it positively impacts other systems throughout the body. Diagnosis and Treatment: Chiropractors examine patients, assess spine position, muscle reflexes, and perform tests to diagnose conditions. They create treatment plans, monitor progress, and focus on the body’s innate healing ability. Remember, chiropractors do not prescribe pain medication.
