Healing BY AMY GREENBURG Chiropractic care can mean more than just back pain relief. Here’s how chiropractic can benefit you and your entire family across a range of ailments. More than just back relief Chiropractic is a health care profession concerned with the conservative management of disorders of the neuromusculoskeletal system, which includes joints, muscles and nerves. It involves careful spinal manipulation, called an adjustment, and other manual therapies to correct any joint restrictions, thus restoring the body’s natural ability to heal itself. If you prefer a hands-on approach to your healthcare that promotes natural healing without medications or surgery, chiropractic treatment offers a non-invasive and non-surgical solution. Hands-on for Everyone

Studies have shown that getting one’s spine adjusted decreases levels of the stress hormone norepinephrine in the body, which in turn helps with boosting immunity, relieving symptoms of ailments and diseases, and restoring normal function to the body. And, this natural type of therapy goes far beyond healing backaches. In fact, research has shown that chiropractic’s holistic approach to healthcare can be used to effectively manage a wide range of health issues, including everything from headaches and sciatica to strains, sprains and sports injuries.
