Chiropractors have been providing safe and effective health care for over 100 years. The practice of spinal manipulation has been practiced for thousands of years! From ancient China to Greece, many health problems have been treated using spinal manipulation. In one particular writing of Hippocrates (The Father of Medicine 460-370 BC) "Manipulation and Importance of Good Health, " he wrote: "Get knowledge of the spine, for this is the requisite for many diseases."
Low back pain and headache treatments are what most people think of when they hear chiropractic, but chiropractors treat many different conditions. Chiropractic is based on the scientific fact that your body is a self-regulating, self-healing organism. These important functions are controlled by the brain, spinal cord, and all the nerves of the body.
The moving bones of the spine protect the vulnerable communication pathways of the spinal cord and nerve roots. Back pain, as well as certain varieties of headaches, are often the result of joint dysfunction.
