Chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on disorders of the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system, and the effects of these disorders on general health. Chiropractic care is used most often to treat neuromusculoskeletal complaints, including but not limited to back pain, neck pain, pain in the joints of the arms or legs, and headaches.
Doctors of Chiropractic, often referred to as chiropractors or chiropractic physicians, practice a drug-free, hands-on approach to health care. This approach includes patient examination, diagnosis, and treatment. The treatment is referred to as an adjustment or manipulation, and a variety of techniques or methods are used to fit the needs of each patient. Chiropractors have broad diagnostic skills and are also trained to recommend therapeutic and rehabilitative exercises and provide nutritional, dietary, and lifestyle counseling.
There are a variety of reasons why people seek chiropractic care. Some come for pain control, some to enhance the function of their body, some so that they can prevent problems, and some to improve general health.
We know that getting regular chiropractic adjustments can help you live a healthier, more productive life. So yes, we think all our patients should be under regular chiropractic care and regular is different for each individual. Our philosophy is that it is always better to “stay well” than have to “get well” and just like regular dental care keeps your smile looking its best, regular chiropractic care will help keep your body functioning at its best.
After your initial visit with the doctor, he will recommend a treatment plan that he feels will get you back to optimal health. You then can make an informed decision about how far you want to take your chiropractic health journey. Whatever your health goals are, we are here to help you.
