Chiropractic Care - Spinal Manipulation

Chiropractic care is an approach to pain that does not require medication. It involves a chiropractor, a trained healthcare professional, who manipulates the spine. Although chiropractic care is most commonly used to treat back pain, the benefits do not end there. This treatment is particularly effective when combined with other modalities such as massage and acupuncture. While these treatments may not completely eliminate chronic pain, it can give a much needed break in the pain cycle, and has been shown to lower both severity and duration of pain.
