What does a chiropractor do?
A chiropractor specializes in diagnosing and treating a wide range of disorders related to the nervous and/or musculoskeletal system. Usually, they focus on hands-on or more gentle instrument manipulation of the body's musculoskeletal structure to correct the alignment. Proper alignment of the musculoskeletal structure enables the body to heal without medication or surgery. By manipulating different musculoskeletal structures from head to foot, but most especially the spine, chiropractors aim to restore mobility of the joints affected by surrounding injured tissues, muscles and irritated nerves..
