What is Chiropractic ?
Chiropractic is a branch of the health sciences which focuses upon
the body's neuromusculoskeletal system. A chiropractor is concerned
with how your body's skeletal and nervous system is functioning. Since
your spine is the key highway for your central nervous system, a chiropractor
is trained to use a variety of diagnostic methods to examine and treat
your spine and bone structure.
Although the major focus of chiropractic is on the spine and central
nervous system, your chiropractor is concerned with the wellness of
your whole body. Since your nervous system determines how well you
feel physically, mentally, and emotionally, many problems you are
experiencing may be related to a problem with your spine and nervous
system.
