FAQ

What is Chiropractic?

"Chiropractic" comes from the word "chiropraktikos", which means
"effective treatment by hand". It is a branch of the healing arts based upon the understanding that good health depends, in part, upon a normally functioning nervous system (especially the spine and the nerves extending from the spine to all parts of the body.) Rather than using drugs, chemicals, and invasive procedures, Chiropractic focuses on locating and adjusting parts of the body to normalize nervous system function and to optimize health.

What conditions benefit from Chiropractic care?

While Chiropractic is used most frequently to relieve low-back pain, studies have found it to be effective for a variety of conditions, including migraine headaches, neck and shoulder pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, and infantile colic, to name a few.  A thorough initial consultation with your chiropractor can help determine whether or not chiropractic care can help resolve your specific condition.

Is Chiropractic safe?

Chiropractic adjustments are extremely safe. Statistics show that you are much more likely to have an adverse reaction to aspirin than to chiropractic care.

What kind of education do Chiropractors receive?

Chiropractors receive an extensive education in neuromuscular diagnosis and treatment that encompasses three areas of concentration: basic biological and health sciences (anatomy, physiology, histology, biochemistry, clinical and radiological diagnosis); specialized training in the Chiropractic discipline (theoretical studies, practice, diagnosis and treatment); and extensive training through clinical residency.
