What is chiropractic care?

Chiropractic care is a health care science, art, and philosophy aimed at improving body function by removing interferences between your nervous system, which includes your brain, spinal cord, and millions of nerve endings, and the rest of your body.

It’s based on the scientific fact your nervous system controls the function of every cell, tissue, and organ in your body with your spinal cord acting as a messenger system protected by 24 moving bones. Vertebrae and disc misalignments may cause irritation to your nervous system and affect your body’s structures, organs, and functions.

What can I expect during chiropractic care?

You can expect a thorough evaluation, along with an individualized care plan, during chiropractic care. To better understand your health concerns, the team begin by obtaining your medical and symptom history. So the team can get a good picture of your health, be sure to bring in X-rays, MRIs, or other tests you’ve had done.

In addition to testing your blood pressure and heart rate, the chiropractic team also test your range of motion, muscle tone and strength, and neurological integrity.

They then develop and administer a care plan, which might include:
