Welcome to Drs. What's best for the patient. Chiropractic is a growing component of the healthcare sector, and it is widely used by the population. Chiropractic is a health profession whose primary focus is the care and prevention of musculoskeletal disorders and the consequences of these disorders on the nervous system and general health. It is a natural and conservative approach to healthcare.
Doctors of chiropractic are specialists in manual therapy, including spinal manipulation.
They are portals of entry into the healthcare system and therefore are trained and licensed to both diagnose and treat. In addition to manipulation and other manual therapies, chiropractors utilize physical therapy modalities, exercise programs, nutritional advice, rehabilitation programs and lifestyle modifications. Manipulation is treatment using the doctors hands to apply body leverage and a physical thrust to one joint or a group of joints to restore normal function. Through manipulation, the doctor seeks to provide relief from symptoms and improve joint and muscle function and speed recovery. While there are millions of individual case experiences to support chiropractic benefits, there are also numerous published studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of spinal manipulation.
