Employing holistic and noninvasive techniques, chiropractors possess expertise and training that is used on its own or to support conventional medical methods.

What are Chiropractic Adjustments?
Spinal adjustments or manipulations are the basis of chiropractic care. This hands-on technique realigns one's spine and gently improves one's musculoskeletal and nervous systems.
Chiropractic adjustments are based on the theoretical and practical knowledge that a misaligned spine has the potential to wreak havoc on the nervous system, leading to problems throughout the body. When the nervous system isn't functioning optimally, it can cause various health problems like pain, mobility issues, and limited capacity. Chiropractors seek to enhance overall health and well-being by realigning the spine through spinal manipulations to enhance the body's natural healing abilities.

During a spinal adjustment, a chiropractor delivers a quick but controlled force to a particular area of the spine. The main goal is to improve joint mobility by correcting misaligned vertebrae. This method aims to relieve or eliminate pain, swelling, nerve compression, inflammation, muscle tightness, and other associated problems.

Chiropractic adjustments can be done by hand or with the assistance of an instrument. The choice of adjustment method is contingent on the condition being treated and, if applicable, the preference of the client.
