Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care is a patient centered, non-invasive, hands-on, regulated health care profession focused on your spine, muscles, joints and nervous system. Chiropractors use the best available evidence and clinical expertise to diagnosis: provide treatment and preventive care for many health conditions. Chiropractic care can also promote health and improve your quality of life, as well as alleviate pain.

Chiropractic care is the primary method of treatment for many medical conditions, such as low back pain, head ache, arthritis, stenosis, plantar fasciitis, and any more conditions. Chiropractors use various treatments, depending on their patient’s specific needs and preferences.

Common treatments include:

  • Manual, ‘hands-on’ therapy
  • Soft tissue therapy
  • Electronic modalities, such as therapeutic ultrasound and cold laser therapy
  • Shock wave therapy
  • Customized, therapeutic exercise programs
  • Self-management tools and techniques (like positions for relief or coping strategies for pain)
  • Advice and education
  • Manual Manipulation; One of the most frequent treatments a chiropractor uses is manual manipulation of the vertebrae of your spine or other joints, which is called an ‘adjustment.’ To perform an adjustment, your chiropractor will use their hands to apply controlled force to your joint and guide it through a range of motion. This action restores your joint’s natural movement and improves its function

When applied to your spine, this treatment is called spinal manipulation therapy (SMT). Manipulation is also used on other joints, such as those in your wrist, ankle, or foot, as an effective treatment.
