This statement confuses some people who believe that chiropractic is a back pain profession. In reality chiropractic deals with correcting subluxations. Subluxations are areas of interference to the nervous system caused by pressure or irritation from spinal bones.
Chiropractors correct subluxations.
One of the most common causes of a subluxation in an infant is the birth process. Chiropractors have been informing the public of the danger to newborns from the common birth processes used today. Birth is a natural phenomenon that should not be viewed or treated as a medical condition. However, in an attempt to manage the birth process, many problems may be created. The most prevalent danger chiropractors have been warning about when it comes to the birth process is Traumatic Birth Syndrome resulting in the creation of subluxations.
