Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic Care
The primary goal of chiropractic care is to restore and enhance the health of the patient through the use of hands-on techniques, without the use of surgery or drugs. Treatment focuses on areas of reduced joint motion, soft tissue injury and pain. Your chiropractor will use a variety of techniques to assess, diagnose, treat and rehabilitate your injuries or problem areas. She will also discuss how to prevent recurrence of your condition and will recommend exercises, stretches and lifestyle modifications to enhance your long-term health.
Chiropractic adjustments:
Chiropractic manipulative therapy, also known as an adjustment, is a gentle and safe way to restore movement in almost all joints of the body. The goal of the adjustment is to improve joint function, reduce pain, and get you moving and feeling your best.
An adjustment involves a quick light force that is carefully applied to a joint to restore proper mobility. Your doctor will determine which type of chiropractic adjustment is suitable for you based on your condition, your age, your bone health, and your personal preference.
