Chiropractic is based on the diagnosis and manipulation treatment of the joints, especially those of the spinal column. Chiropractors treat a wide range of muscoskeletal conditions and the effect this can have on the nervous system. Most people see a chiropractor with low back / leg pain, neck and arm pain or a sports injury. Other common reasons for seeing a chiropractor include aches and pains arising from poor posture, or injuries from falls. Your chiropractor can offer practical tips and exercises to help with lifestyle. Chiropractic treatment is tailored to the individual patient's needs, but usually involves gentle specific manipulation or adjustment directed at joints that are not moving properly to help improve function and mobility.
