Chiropractic is a natural healthcare profession that focuses on treating conditions of the neuromusculoskeletal system without drugs or surgery. A chiropractor will take a complete health history, perform an examination, and determine if chiropractic care is appropriate. The chiropractor's main focus is the spine, which is composed of vertebrae and discs that can become fixated and limit motion. The chiropractic adjustment is used to restore normal motion to fixated spinal joints through specific corrections without putting bones back into place. A series of adjustments along with preventative exercises may be needed for correction and maintenance of proper spinal function.
