Doctors of Chiropractic use the term adjustment, it means a specific corrective
thrust applied to a vertebral segment, which has been found to be in a
fixated or sub-luxated position.
The adjustment is usually given by hand or with an activator instrument
and consists of applying pressure to the areas of the spine that are
out of alignment or that do not move properly within their normal range
of motion.
Chiropractic adjustments are extremely safe.
The risk factor is estimated to be in excess of 1 million to 1.
While your health complaint may seem new, the underlying problem may have existed for years. Reducing nervous system dysfunction by restoring normal motion or
position of individual spinal bones, is one of your Chiropractor's
major goals.
Chiropractic doesn't add anything, Chiropractic doesn't take anything
away. Chiropractic honors the wisdom of your body and your inborn
potential to be healthy.
It
is this difference that has helped millions and produced high levels of
patient satisfaction. Ask questions, discover the simple truth about
chiropractic care. And then make a natural choice.
