The techniques used to perform the corrections are standard spinal adjustments used by chiropractors that are trained, capable and qualified to perform this adjustment. With the important connection between the brain stem and breathing control, it is important to have the neck examined by an expert trained in locating and correcting vertebral subluxations in the upper neck. Primarily because there is a significant difference in medicine and chiropractic. The difference lies in the philosophy, opinions, and practices. Doctors of Chiropractic look at the body as a whole and examine the spine and remove misalignments that may cause nerve interference, which can compromise health.
Medical doctors have different theories and approaches to health.
They have recognized the problem lies in the nerve system, specifically the brain stem, but have not been able to come up with a way of preventing or correcting that problem. I thought chiropractors were for back and neck pain. Nerves control every function in your body. When the nerves to a certain organ are not working properly due to interference, that organ may not function properly. Doctors of chiropractic remove the nerve interference by adjusting the spine, therefore allowing the body to function properly without nerve interference.
