How can chiropractic help?
Chiropractic treatments provide relief from a variety of ailments, including pains and soreness in the back, neck, arms, shoulders, and legs. Other symptoms that are often treated by chiropractic care include allergies, chronic pains, sciatica, and migraine headaches.

Who can perform chiropractic adjustments?
Since chiropractic adjustments are medical treatments, they should only be performed by trained physicians. A chiropractor is a licensed medical doctor who has received additional training in chiropractic techniques. Chiropractors help patients diagnose, treat, and recover from misalignments in their spine and body.

The most common form of chiropractic treatment is the hands-on spinal manipulation. Using gentle, controlled force, a chiropractor will apply pressure to a restricted joint, in order to restore mobility.

Additional treatments include x-rays, spinal screenings, therapeutic massage, and spinal decompression. Your chiropractor will recommend the best treatments to achieve your health goals.
