At the heart of the chiropractic philosophy is this simple wisdom: treat the problem itself, not just the symptoms. If you only look at the symptoms, the underlying problem is still there and will keep coming back until it's treated.

Chiropractic care is an effective method of treatment for many people who suffer from back pain, neck pain, headaches and other neuromusculoskeletal disorders.

The science of chiropractic centers around the body's spine. The spine houses and protects the spinal cord, which is the "switchboard" through which nerve impulses are transmitted from the brain to all parts of the body. In the event of an injury, misaligned vertebrae can interfere with nerve transmissions, inhibit mobility and cause pain or discomfort. Chiropractic treatment realigns the vertebrae so the nerve impulses are not restricted. When the spine is properly aligned, the cause of pain and malfunction is removed, and the body will return to normal.

Chiropractic care helps millions of people get relief from pain.

Studies show that chiropractic care is twice as effective as medical treatment in returning workers to the workplace following a back injury. The Agency for Health Care Policy Research guidelines recommend the use of spinal manipulation for acute low back problems over any other treatment.

Chiropractic care is affordable.
