Chiropractic Adjustment: What It Is And Why It’s Effective

Your spine is one of the core elements of your musculoskeletal system. Your head, arms, and legs all rely on a healthy spine in order to function properly, and chiropractic adjustment is an excellent way to ensure your spine, and the rest of your body, are in proper alignment.

What Is Chiropractic Adjustment?

A chiropractic adjustment is manual therapy, performed by a chiropractor, using hands or gentle tools, aimed to decrease pain and increase mobility in your joints. Patients lie face down on a padded table and the chiropractor applies sudden, controlled force to targeted zones of the spine, usually pushing joints and vertebrae momentarily past their normal range of motion. The goal of this procedure is to place the spine in proper alignment.

Why Are Chiropractic Adjustments Effective?

Chiropractors aim to put motion back into your joints. Poor posture, unhealthy lifestyle and general wear and tear cause joint misalignment, also known as subluxation, over time. Correcting this subluxation can dramatically impact patients’ quality of life and improve general mobility while minimizing the pain that misaligned joints cause.

The Top 3 Benefits Of Chiropractic Adjustment

Decreased pain from subluxation

One of the main benefits of chiropractic adjustment is its ability to decrease overall pain. A misaligned spine can be incredibly painful and lead to other musculoskeletal problems.

Improves joint health and overall mobility 

Chiropractors help their patients regain overall mobility and joint health so they can get back to living the active lives they love.

Decreases inflammation from misaligned joints

Subluxation can lead to high levels of inflammation which can not only be painful, but can lead to chronic problems down the road.
