Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a healthcare profession that focuses on disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system, and the effects of these disorders on general health.  Chiropractors practice a drug-free, non-invasive, hands-on approach to healthcare that includes patient examination, diagnosis and treatment.  When a joint in the body, most commonly the spine, becomes restricted in movement, the chiropractor performs a gentle adjustment to restore joint mobility, which can alleviate pain and muscle tightness, and allow the body to heal itself and achieve optimal function.
