Chiropractic is...
SPECIFIC
All professions have distinct traits that make it unique from other professions. Being specific is one of those distinctions in chiropractic.
Chiropractic offices use state-of-the-art technology and advanced clinical skills to determine not only where you need to be adjusted, but also, more importantly, if you need to be.
Other professions may push and pull and rub you all over, yet they fail to locate the specific cause of the dysfunction in the first place. When analyzing your spine for the specific source of interference, your doctor will often find one, maybe two or three key areas. In this instance, less is more.
What You Need to Know...
Often times people want the doctor to "adjust" them in a particular area. This would be like going to your mechanic and asking him to replace the carburetor without analyzing the condition of the vehicle. Anyone can make a joint "pop" but only chiropractic has developed specific techniques to detect and correct the vertebral subluxation. And while we may "feel" like a certain spot needs to be adjusted, the actual subluxation may be far removed.
Chiropractic is specific. It seeks to find the source of nerve interference and then provide the necessary adjustment to allow the intelligence of the body to operate optimally.
