Chiropractic care focuses on the relationship
between the spinal column, and the nervous, muscular and circulatory systems and
their combined effect on a patient's overall health. The spinal column
houses the spinal cord, and spinal nerves branch out from between the vertebrae
to areas all over the body. A doctor of chiropractic treats spinal
problems by identifying, through examination, and x-rays if necessary, where the
problem area is located. Chiropractors then manipulate of adjust the spine
to correct the problem, alleviate the pain and encourage the body's natural
healing process.
Today many medical doctors are realizing the significant role chiropractors can play in relieving pain for their patients. This "integrative health care" approach is allowing professionals from different specialties to work together to improve their patients' health. Chiropractic services are quickly becoming recognized as mainstream health care.
