Chiropractic care is a natural method of health care that focuses on treating the cause(s) of physical problems rather than just the symptom. It is based on a simple but powerful premise that with a normally functioning spine, joints and muscles and a healthy lifestyle, your body is better able to stay healthy and heal itself. Chiropractors specialize in the detection and correction of problems in the spine, muscles and other joints of the body which may not be moving correctly or functioning properly. When this happens inflammation can result, as well as pain and degeneration (arthritis). When these problems are found, chiropractors use manual “hands-on” manipulation (adjusting) to help move joints and restore their normal movement patterns. Chiropractic is not only designated for spinal problems. Skilled chiropractors can treat all different types of joints in the body, some of the most common being shoulders, wrists, knees.
