2. • Chiropractors use hands-on spinal manipulation and other
alternative treatments, the theory being that proper
alignment of the body's musculoskeletal structure,
particularly the spine, will enable the body to heal itself
without surgery or medication. Manipulation is used to
restore mobility to joints restricted by tissue injury caused by
a traumatic event, such as falling, or repetitive stress, such as
sitting without proper back support.
• Chiropractic is primarily used as a pain relief alternative for
muscles, joints, bones, and connective tissue, such as
cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. It is sometimes used in
conjunction with conventional medical treatment.
What Is Chiropractic?
3. • A chiropractor first takes a medical history, performs
a physical examination, and may use lab tests or diagnostic
imaging to determine if treatment is appropriate for your
back pain.

5. Will you be our doctor?
• Family care can start from the very beginning. Babies can
benefit when their pregnant mothers receive chiropractic
care. During this period of weight gain and hormonal
changes, many mothers seek chiropractic care. They often
report easier births.
• Newborns, infants and children can benefit, too. The birth
process may be the cause of our first subluxation! Then,
learning to walk, ride a bike or play sports can produce so-
called growing pains. Ignored, these problems can worsen
until they become more difficult to correct as an adult.
6. • Car accidents, work injuries and the stress and strains of
our busy lives can produce subluxations. Periodic
chiropractic checkups can be helpful. Many patients report
more energy, vitality and better overall health.
• Seniors enjoying an active retirement stop by our office,
too. Safe and natural chiropractic care makes sense. They
can see how the structure of the spine can affect the
nervous system and how their body works.
7. • Regardless of your age or condition, a better
working spine and nervous system is good for
your health. Share your chiropractic experience
with others by starting with those you love.
8. Why do newborns get chiropractic
adjustments?
• Even today's "natural" childbirth methods can
affect an infant's spine. Preliminary studies
suggest that colic, unusual crying, poor appetite,
ear infections or erratic sleeping habits can be
signs of spinal distress. Relax. Newborns
adjustments are gentle. As a rule, no more
pressure than you'd used to test the ripeness of a
tomato is involved.

10. How long do chiropractors go to school?
• Chiropractors complete seven years university-level
education.
• Chiropractic students undergo a rigorous course of study
similar to that of other health care professionals. Entrance
requirements are also similar. Students are required to
complete a minimum of three years of university before
they are eligible for admission to study as a chiropractor.
11. • Approximately 90 per cent of students entering the CMCC
program have completed a baccalaureate or graduate
degree. The CMCC program requires four years of full-time
study, including a 12-month internship in the College’s
clinics. In Quebec, the UQTR has a five-year program
following graduation from CÉGEP.
