Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a healthcare profession that specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the ligaments, muscles, joints, tendons, and nerves, especially related to the spine. Chiropractic is well established in the United States. According to the ACA (American Chiropractor Association), an estimated 30 million people visit a Chiropractor in the US annually.
Doctors of Chiropractic, often referred to as Chiropractors or Chiropractic physicians, practice a drug-free and hands-on approach to healthcare. A basic Chiropractic treatment includes patient examination, diagnosis and treatment. Chiropractic treatment involves safe, often gentle, specific spinal manipulation to free joints in the spine or other areas of the body that are not moving properly. Chiropractic treatment rarely causes discomfort but after treatment, patients may experience mild soreness or aching that should resolve within 12 to 48 hours.
Chiropractors specialize in back and neck pain but treat many issues outside of this scope. Most people under Chiropractic treatment are diagnosed with lower back-related conditions such as Sciatica. Chiropractors have broad diagnostic skills. They are trained to recommend therapeutic and rehabilitative exercises, as well as to provide nutritional, dietary and lifestyle counseling.
