What is a chiropractor?
We are health care professionals that specialize in diagnosing and treating neuromuscular disorders (even though we don’t limit ourselves to just dealing with issues of the nervous system and musculoskeletal system) through spinal adjustments and manipulations. The goals of chiropractic care are to reduce pain while improving functionality and movement in each and every patient. We can also educate you on ways to improve your body through exercise, therapy, and ergonomics.
