What Is Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care focuses on the health of your spine, joints, and nervous system. Many aches, pains, and mobility issues are rooted in misalignments or restricted movement in the spine and related joints. Through gentle adjustments and targeted therapies, we address the underlying causes—not just the symptoms—so you can move with confidence.
How Chiropractic Care Can Help
You don’t have to “just live with” pain, stiffness, or nerve irritation. Chiropractic treatment offers a safe, drug-free way to improve joint mobility, reduce inflammation, and restore balance throughout your body. If you’re unsure whether your symptoms are a fit for chiropractic, you’re not alone—many patients discover that care can help with more conditions than they realized.
Benefits of Chiropractic Care:
- Pain Relief: Target discomfort at the source—whether from injury, daily stress, or chronic conditions.
- Restored Range of Motion: Move more freely with improved joint flexibility.
- Reduced Nerve Irritation: Relieve pressure on nerves to address tingling, numbness, or radiating pain.
- Better Posture: Realign the spine to support healthier movement habits.
- Whole-Body Wellness: Regular care helps prevent future problems and supports overall function.

Common Chiropractic Terminology:
Acute Back Pain
This is back pain from a recent injury or is endured for a short period of time. As opposed to chronic low back pain, which is persistent over an extended period of time.
Adjustment
Spinal adjustment and chiropractic adjustment are terms used by chiropractors to describe their approaches to spinal manipulation. An adjustment occurs when force is applied to a joint in order to increase mobility and change the alignment of bones in the body.
Chronic Back Pain
Back pain that persists for an extended period of time. Not treating pain when it initially occurs can lead to a problem becoming chronic in nature if the pain persists.
Herniated Disc
A condition which refers to a problem with a rubbery disc between the spinal bones. This condition occurs when the soft center of a spinal disc pushes through a crack in the tougher exterior casing and can irritate nearby nerves and result in pain, numbness, or weakness in an arm or leg.
Joint
The location at which two or more bones make contact. They are constructed to allow movement and provide mechanical support for the human body.
Ligament
A short band of tough, flexible fibrous connective tissue which connects two bones or cartilages or holds together a joint.
Massage
Massage is the gentle kneading of soft tissues used to increase circulation, decrease pain, relieve adhesions, and increase mobility.
Peripheral Neuropathy
Damage to nerves of the peripheral nervous system, which may be caused either by diseases of the nerve or from the side-effects of systemic illness.
Sciatica
Pain caused by a problem with the sciatic nerve that can cause pain in the lower back that spreads to the hip, buttocks, and leg.
Sprain/Strain
An injury in which both the muscles and ligaments of a specific joint or a region of the body have received damage. These injuries are commonly seen in car accidents, sporting accidents, whiplash injuries, etc.
Subluxation
