What is "chiropractic"?
Chiropractic is a healthcare profession that focuses on diagnosing and treating disorders of the muscle and skeletal systems, particularly the spine. Chiropractors use hands-on techniques, mainly spinal adjustments and manipulations, to align the body's structure and ease pain. They believe that proper alignment of these systems allows the body to heal itself without surgery or medication. Chiropractic care may also include exercises, stretches, and lifestyle changes to improve overall health and prevent future problems.
Examples
Mary sought chiropractic treatment to relieve her back pain and improve her posture.
