What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic is a healthcare profession concerned with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, and the effects of these disorders on the function of the nervous system and general health.
Chiropractors undergo 5 years of university study in anatomy, physiology, neurology, radiology, biomechanics, biochemistry, diagnosis, and chiropractic technique.
Chiropractors use techniques such as spinal adjustments, muscle balancing techniques, and cranial corrections to improve function of the body.
People often present to chiropractors for help with headaches, migraine, neck pain, back pain, shoulder problems, hip problems, sports injuries, and any problem they feel is related to the functioning of their musculoskeletal and nervous systems.
What is Applied Kinesiology?
Applied Kinesiology (AK) is a diagnostic system using manual muscle testing and assessment of muscle reflex patterns to augment normal examination procedures, and assists in determining exactly what type of care a person needs.
