We can help with more than just muscle, joint, and back pain.Ĭhiropractic focus is on the musculoskeletal system. Frequent visits also help establish muscle memory and joint memory to stay in proper alignment or “hold your adjustment.” You will even start to notice what your body feels like in proper alignment and sense when something is off and you need an adjustment. It takes time to undo the damage of poor posture, injury, or malposition of the spine, which is why your chiropractor will want to see you frequently in the beginning stages of your treatment plan. However, you may significantly decrease pain or symptoms after your initial adjustment. You don’t need to come forever, but you will want to.Ĭhiropractic is not a one-time fix.

Find the adjustment that is comfortable and works for your body. There are also special tables that drop and deliver the adjustment into the joint without having to twist, torque or push. If the “cracking and popping” is just not right for you, there are many other ways to provide an effective adjustment.

During that time, D.C.s are also learning the art and skill of adjusting. This is higher than most other medical professions.ĭoctors of Chiropractic study the same curriculum as medical programs for the first two years, including dissecting a real human body. To name some of the highly studied systems of chiropractors, we study 540 hours of Anatomy-Physiology, 360 hours of radiology, and 210 hours of orthopedics. Compare this to an M.D (medical doctor) who earns 2706 hours. (doctor of chiropractic) earns 3065 classroom hours. Most chiropractors earn their bachelor’s degree, meet all of the science prerequisites, and then continue to chiropractic school.

Chiropractic is a hands-on healing profession.
