Chiropractic

Chiropractors diagnose and treat spinal and other health disorders to help their patients regain and maintain good health. They work to prevent disability and to correct abnormalities caused by interference with the nervous system. They manually adjust the spinal column and other parts of the body. They may also use water (hydrotherapy), light, heat, ultrasound, nutritional and electric therapy. They use physical examinations, laboratory studies, and x-rays to aid in their diagnosis.
