One of the most popular services associated with the profession is chiropractic adjustment.

You may have seen a chiropractor before, or you might not know what they do. If this is the case and you are wondering how a chiropractic adjustment can help your body, then this article will answer all of your questions. 

Chiropractors use their hands or small instruments to apply controlled force to spinal joints in order to improve motion and physical function. A visit from a chiropractor could be beneficial for anyone who has back pain, neck pain, sciatica, headaches or any other musculoskeletal condition.

The goal of an adjustment is to restore joint motion and relieve pain by removing pressure from the joints. A chiropractic evaluation will include a complete physical examination, discussion about your lifestyle habits, such as smoking or alcohol use, and any past injuries that may be affecting you now. If deemed necessary, they might also order x-rays or other diagnostic tests in order to identify any problem areas in more detail.

The most common procedure used by chiropractors includes spinal manipulation; this procedure involves applying controlled force at one vertebra at a time until relief is felt. In some cases where there are extreme problems present for which manual adjustments alone do not provide adequate relief, surgery may be recommended.

Manual adjustments can mean twisting and turning movements applied to the spine through a chiropractic adjustment

Extreme problems on the other hand, may require surgery, such as scoliosis or hip dysplasia.

Chiropractic adjustment is safe when it's performed by someone trained and licensed to deliver chiropractic care.
