Chiropractic - what is it?
Poor posture, chronic illnesses, sports injuries, emotional stress - these are just some of the many causes of pain that people seek manual therapy for. These also cause blockages in the spine or other joints, leading to restricted movement, which over time leads to poor movement patterns and excessive strain on the body.
Chiropractic is a hands-on healing treatment. By removing these blockages with gentle adjustments , the chiropractor helps you heal faster.
Chiropractic care is helpful for a number of conditions, which we have listed below. If you are unsure whether this type of treatment is right for you, please feel free to call our practice or fill out the contact form.
