What is Chiropractic?Chiropractic is a specialized health profession where the natural healing abilities of a patient is emphasised. Chiropractors perform a history interview and physical examination before diagnosing a condition. When a diagnosis is formed, a plan of management is developed and a report of findings is provided; it explains the type of treatment that is to be provided.
Chiropractors offer a unique treatment technique called a manipulation or adjustment. A manipulation is a high velocity, low amplitude thrust that is applied to a joint to correct its movement, position, and function. The manipulation is applied within the normal range of motion and is often accompanied by an audible crack which indicates a release of gas from within the joint. There are several physiological effects that arise from the manipulation: increased range of motion, decreased muscle spasm, decreased nerve irritability, reduction of pain sensation, and enhanced function.
The type of treatment chiropractors provide can vary depending on the condition. Drs. Willie and Bobby utilizes several different techniques and modalities to ensure that the patient receives the best possible treatment:
