What do Chiropractors do?
A provider qualified by a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC), licensed by the State, and who practices chiropractic medicine -that discipline within the healing arts which deals with the nervous system and its relationship to the spinal column and its interrelationship with other body systems.
Chiropractors are healthcare professionals who specialize in the neuromusculoskeletal system, which encompasses the spine, nerves, muscles, and joints.
Assess and Diagnose
Chiropractors perform physical examinations, take medical histories, and may order imaging tests (e.g., X-rays) to identify musculoskeletal issues such as spinal misalignments, disc herniations, and nerve impingements.
Provide Spinal Adjustments
The primary treatment offered by chiropractors is spinal manipulation, also referred to as chiropractic adjustments. These involve applying controlled force to specific vertebrae to improve alignment and reduce nerve interference.
Treat Musculoskeletal Conditions
Chiropractors treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, sciatica, and whiplash.
Promote Wellness
In addition to spinal adjustments, chiropractors may provide other interventions to support overall wellness, such as:
- Exercise and rehabilitation recommendations
- Nutritional counseling
- Lifestyle modifications
- Soft tissue therapy (e.g., massage, stretching)
It’s important to note that chiropractic care is a complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) approach, and its effectiveness for certain conditions may vary.
