Medical Conditions - Chiropractic Adjustments

Chiropractic adjustments are a type of manual therapy that involve the manipulation of the spine and other joints in the body to improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance function. The goal of chiropractic adjustments is to restore proper alignment and function of the musculoskeletal system. During a chiropractic adjustment, sudden force is applied to a specific joint in the spine or elsewhere in the body. The force is intended to stretch or mobilize the joint. Common applications of chiropractic adjustments include back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint pain.
