Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  • Chiropractic is a branch of the healing arts based upon the understanding that good health depends, in part, upon a normally functioning nervous system (especially the spine and the nerves extending from the spine to all body parts). The term chiropractic comes from the Greek word chiropraktikos, meaning "effective treatment by hand." Chiropractic stresses the idea that the cause of many disease processes begins with the body's inability to adapt to its environment. This field looks to address these diseases by locating and adjusting the dysfunctional musculoskeletal area of the body without using any medication.

  • Although chiropractic is used most frequently to relieve lower back pain, it is effective for a variety of conditions such as migraine headaches, neck and shoulder pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and plantar fasciitis.

  • Chiropractic adjustments or manipulations are extremely safe. The risk factor is estimated to be in excess of one million to one.

  • A chiropractic adjustment is a gentle, specific movement of part of your body made by a chiropractor, the purpose of which is the correction of your spinal subluxations or any joint fixations, which in turn will alleviate the impairment of nerve function in your body. It is painless.
