FAQ: What are some of the conditions commonly treated by chiropractic?
A. All kinds of conditions are treated with chiropractic care, such as colds or ear infections, PMS, spinal or disc problems, arthritis, insomnia, stress, vision problems, headaches, allergies, bedwetting, colic, high blood pressure- the list is long! And yet, please remember, the goal of chiropractic treatment is not the treatment of disease but rather the enhancement of health through the reduction of spinal nerve stress (vertebral subluxation complex). The above list may seem long as through chiropractic were a panacea. The truth is that most textbooks list over two hundred diseases. Please be mindful of the fact that chiropractic care is not like one drug used for one condition, but on the contrary, it is a complete healing art within itself, concerned with the systems of the body such as nervous, circulatory, digestive, respiratory, eliminatory, reproductive, hormonal, musculoskeletal, etc., and seeks to correct health problems within those systems.
FAQ: Assuming I’m going to take chiropractic treatments, how are they performed?
Chiropractics work with the bones and nerves of the spinal column and spinal cord respectively. Chiropractors spends years of highly specialized training in order to locate where misplaced spinal vertebra are impinging the nerves which travel down the spinal cord and out through the spinal column to the muscles, organs and glands of the body. After locating the vertebrae impinging the nerves (subluxations), a chiropractor uses various specialized techniques to replace the misplaced vertebrae and thus release pressure on the nerves. That is called a spinal adjustment.
FAQ:Why do I hear a popping sound when my chiropractor adjusts me?
Sometimes during a chiropractic adjustment, you'll notice a distinctive "pop." Don't be alarmed—it shouldn't be painful. The noise is often due to a change of pressure between joints that results in a release of a gas bubble.
