WHAT IS CHIROPRACTIC

Chiropractic is a health care discipline which emphasizes the inherent recuperative power of the body to heal itself without the use of drugs or surgery. For over a century, doctors of chiropractic have successfully helped millions of individuals recover from neurological / spine-related health problems. As a result, chiropractic has earned its place as the largest drug-less and non-surgical health care option in the United States.

HOW CAN A CHIROPRACTOR HELP?

Chiropractic care can correct these structural distortions, known as subluxations, restoring the body to its optimal form and function. Local symptoms of subluxations may include pain, tenderness, swelling, tingling, numbness, or spasm around the joints of the spine, back, and neck. Many times these sensations extend further into the shoulders and arms, around the rib cage, or into the hips and down the legs. Subluxations can even lead to headaches, stomach and digestive problems, and loss of overall health.

WILL MY INSURANCE COVER IT, ISN’T IT EXPENSIVE?

Doctors of chiropractic are specially trained in the evaluation and treatment of spinal conditions like subluxations. The benefits of chiropractic care have been shown to extend beyond reduction of back and neck pain. Patients report a reduction of headache pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, jaw pain, sciatica, and tingling in the arms and legs, after chiropractic. The rewards of chiropractic care are oftentimes numerous.
