Chiropractic is a healthcare discipline that emphasizes the healing and wellness without the use of drugs or surgery. Chiropractic focuses on the relationship of the body's structure and function and how that relationship affects the preservation and restoration of health.
Many people suffer with prolonged joint pain or stiffness due to maladapted musculoskeletal patterns following auto accidents, work or sports injuries, or prolonged or repetitive stress on the body. This can be due to joint displacement or contractures in the soft tissue that create interference to proper healing and if left unattended interferes with the patients ability to work or compete in sports as well as accelerate aging or degeneration in the affected body segment.
Chiropractors utilize methods to remove interference (subluxations) in the joints and supportive soft tissue to return the body to a more normal structural relationship thus allowing the body to heal. It's purpose is to restore normal motion or position of the musculoskeletal system. This usually involves a quick movement of a displaced or restricted joint called manipulation to overcome maladapted joint patterns.
Lifestyle, diet, nourishment, emotional stress, etc. contribute to interference patterns. Comprehensive chiropractic care supports these needs to return the patient to health, happiness, and recreation.
