What is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic is the largest natural health care modality in the world. Chiropractic is a health care profession that emphasizes diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, not only of the spine but the entire body, under the hypothesis that these disorders affect general health via the nervous system. Chiropractic has many of the attributes of primary care providers and is categorized as a medical specialty like dentistry or podiatry.You will NOT need a medical referral to see a Chiropractor.

People of all ages and with any health status chose natural Chiropractic care every day to help to regain, revitalise or improve their health.

The main chiropractic treatment technique involves manual therapy, including manipulation of the spine, other joints, and soft tissues. Treatment also includes exercises as well as health and lifestyle counseling. Chiropractic assumes that a vertebral subluxation or spinal joint dysfunction interferes with the body’s function. The main aim of each spinal adjustment and chiropractic visit is to remove subluxation (vertebral joint dysfunction/ mis-alignment), enabling your body to express its full health potential.
