What is Chiropractic?

The word “chiropractic” comes from ancient Greek and means “done by hand.” Adjustment of the joints of the body has been used in health care for many centuries and is the heart of modern chiropractic care. Chiropractors are specialists in manual adjustment of the joints of the spine and other areas and adjustments performed by them are designed help relieve pain and restore normal biomechanical and nerve functioning to the whole body. Chiropractors are highly educated, with a minimum of eight years post-secondary and are extensively trained to assess, diagnose, treat, and prevent conditions of the spine, joints, muscle. and nervous systems.

What Is an Adjustment?

An adjustment is a highly skilled, very safe and precise movement usually applied by hand to a specific joint of the body. Adjustments precisely loosen the joint to restore proper movement and optimize function. When a joint is adjusted a nitrogen gas bubble is released causing the “popping” noise you may have heard about. This is similar to the snapping sounds when someone “snaps” their knuckles.

When Should I See a Chiropractor?

Eight out ten Canadians will suffer back pain at some point in their life, and one third are in pain at any given time. This pain, for many people, keeps them away from work, school, or even day-to-day activities. In the majority of cases, early treatment of acute back pain using chiropractic therapies helps to eliminate and prevent the back problems from returning or getting worse. Chronic back pain and other joint problems are also treated with great success. Overall, chiropractic is the treatment of choice when one wants natural and comprehensive therapy to regain and maintain general health.

There are many reasons to seek chiropractic care: work, accidents, sports injuries, household chores, even stress of daily living can cause painful joint and spinal problems. Even if you do not have painful symptoms, Chiropractic can help maintain healthy spine and joint function.
