Chiropractic
has an impressive record in treating many types of back pain.
Spinal manipulation is not a new or recent concept. Records show that
manipulation of the spine can be traced back to the time of Hypocrites.
Since the inception of chiropractic in 1895, chiropractors have held as a
primary tenet that biomechanical and structural derangement of the spine can
affect the nervous system. Because the nervous system is so intimately
related to the spine from an anatomical standpoint, identifying and
restoring spinal structural integrity can improve the health of the
individual by reducing pressure on sensitive neurological tissue. This tenet
continues to be the emphasis that many chiropractors embrace and consumers
seek. |
