Chiropractic Care
-
Chiropractors are trained to diagnose and treat disorders of the musculoskeletal system – particularly in relation to the spine and nervous system. For this reason, many people who visit a chiropractor do so for postural complaints such as neck and lower back pain. The goal of chiropractic treatment is to correct muscle and joint imbalances to help improve nervous system function to the body. To achieve this, chiropractors do not use drugs or surgery but use gentle ‘adjustments’ that improve the mobility and function of your joints and nervous system.
