What is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is the branch of the healing arts which is based upon the understanding that good health depends, in part, upon a normally functioning nervous system. The word “chiropractic” comes from the Greek word Chiropraktikos, meaning "effective treatment by hand." Chiropractic stresses the idea that the cause of many disease processes begins with the body's inability to adapt to its environment. Chiropractic looks to address these diseases not by the use of drugs and chemicals, but by locating and adjusting a musculoskeletal area of the body which is functioning improperly.

The conditions which doctors of chiropractic address are as varied and as vast as the nervous system itself. All doctors of chiropractic use a standard procedure of examination to diagnose a patient's condition and arrive at a course of treatment. Doctors of chiropractic use the same time-honored methods of consultation, case history, physical examination, laboratory analysis and x-ray examination as any other doctor. In addition, they provide a careful chiropractic structural examination, paying particular attention to the spine.

The chiropractic examination of the spine to evaluate structure and function is what makes chiropractic different from other health care procedures. Your spinal column is a series of movable bones that begin at the base of your skull and end in the center of your hips. The doctor of chiropractic focuses on the thirty-one pairs of spinal nerves that extend down the spine from the brain and exit through a series of openings. Chiropractic focuses on the nerves as they leave the spine and form a complicated network that influences every living tissue in your body.

Accidents, falls, stress, tension, overexertion, and countless other factors can result in a displacement of the spinal column, causing irritation to spinal nerve roots. A doctor of chiropractic believes that these irritations are often what cause malfunctions in the human body. Chiropractic teaches that reducing or eliminating this irritation to spinal nerves can cause your body to operate more efficiently and more comfortably.

Chiropractic also places an emphasis on nutritional and exercise programs, wellness and lifestyle modifications for promoting physical and mental health. While chiropractic makes no use of drugs or surgery, doctors of chiropractic do refer patients for medical care when those interventions are indicated. In fact, doctors of chiropractic, medical doctors, physical therapists and other health care professionals now work as partners in occupational health, sports medicine, and a wide variety of other rehabilitation practices.

Why Chiropractic?

You may have asked yourself: Why should I see a doctor of chiropractic? Chiropractic care has much to offer you, even if you aren't currently in pain. Chiropractic is the fastest growing method of healthcare. There are many reasons you might benefit by visiting a doctor of chiropractic. Here are some important points to consider:

Chiropractic Care Treats the Cause of the Problem:
Chiropractic care is primarily concerned with the complete health of the human body, not just the relief of symptoms. Over-the-counter (OTC) medicine may temporarily relieve pain, but the pain is only the symptom of the underlying, real problem. A doctor of chiropractic recognizes that if you don't take the time or the proper approach to deal with the cause of the pain, it has great likelihood of returning again and again.

Headaches, neck aches and back pain are three of the most common symptoms associated with chiropractic care. But chiropractic can also effectively treat pain in the shoulders, legs and extremities. Many of these areas of pain are caused by misalignments in the spine. A doctor of chiropractic has the extensive medical training to identify the source of your problem and provide the correct form of therapy for it, allowing your body to heal itself. In chiropractic the result is a long-term health solution as opposed to the temporary relief of pain you might receive with OTC pain relievers that may mask symptoms.

No Drugs or Needles:
Common treatments of back pain and headaches generally involve the use of pain relief medication, either in pill or injected form. A doctor of chiropractic recognizes that not only do these methods usually fail to solve the underlying problem, they can be unpleasant and expensive to use.

Many times, aches and pains (especially chronic pain) are caused by a misaligned vertebrae exerting pressure on a nerve in your back or neck. A doctor of chiropractic will identify and isolate the place where your spine is misaligned and gently work it back into place. The pressure on your nerve will be relieved and any pains, tight muscles or headaches will go away because the source has been neutralized.

Cost:
Chiropractic care is significantly less expensive than other forms of medical care; one week of treatment with a doctor of chiropractic may cost less than what you might pay for one visit elsewhere! Chiropractic care can offer successful treatment where other physicians might recommend less effective expensive surgery or physical therapy. In this day and age when many people don't have health insurance or have seen their medical benefits reduced, chiropractic is a safe, effective and reasonable alternative to more expensive forms of therapy.
