Frequently Asked Questions
What is a chiropractic adjustment?
A chiropractic adjustment occurs when a chiropractor applies short, quick force to the joints in order to correct a misalignment, increase range of motion, or release pressure on nerves. The adjustment corrects spinal alignment which helps to restore proper function and reduce nerve irritability. The result is a loosening of the joint which allows you to move freely and without pain.
Spinal joints that aren’t moving right can choke or irritate nearby nerves. Chiropractic adjustments from DC Family Chiropractic will add motion to these stuck joints, reducing nervous system disruption. Chiropractic adjustment is not just for the back. Different parts of the body can be helped through spinal and joint manipulation. An adjustment can relieve pain, correct your body's alignment and improve your overall function.
