Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care helps to restore proper structural alignment of the spine through the use of chiropractic adjustments. Improper motion or position of the spinal joints can lead to nerve irritation, muscle tension and compromised movement patterns. Chiropractic helps to improve the function of the nerves, muscles and joints with the aim of optimizing overall health. For patients of all ages, from acute care to prevention and wellness, chiropractic can help you restore and maintain a healthy spine and nervous system to keep you functioning at your best.
A chiropractic adjustment is a very specific treatment usually delivered by hand. It involves a precise thrust to a spinal joint to improve the motion or position of a misaligned spinal segment. This helps to reduce nerve irritation, improve joint movement, and decrease muscle tension or spasm in the area.Your chiropractor will often use hands-on methods to perform an adjustment but we may also use an instrument, specific pressure contacts or special equipment to achieve the desired effect. There are many ways to adjust the spine, each adapted to an individual’s needs, preferences and comfort levels. We may also use a variety of other treatment methods to help you achieve your health goals and get lasting results.
