Chiropractic
Care is a medical health care profession with the
purpose of diagnosing and treating mechanical disorders
of the spine and musculoskeletal system, with
the intention of affecting the nervous system and improving
health.
Chiropractic
Care is based on the premise that a spinal joint
misalignment, (also called a vertebral subluxation), can
interfere with the nervous system and result in many
different conditions of diminished health.

Chiropractic treatments may vary depending on the
patient's physical condition and physical limitations and
medical needs to achieve wellness, and may often
include spinal
adjustments
for the purpose of realignment of the spinal column. Proper
spinal alignment helps promote harmony between the bones,
ligaments, cartilage, and muscles.

Relevant
Medical Studies

In 1998, a study of 10,652 Florida workers' compensation
cases was conducted by Steve Wolk, which concluded that "a
claimant with a back-related injury, when initially treated
by a chiropractor versus a medical doctor, is less
likely to become temporarily disabled, or if disabled,
remains disabled for a shorter period of time; and claimants
treated by medical doctors were hospitalized at a much
higher rate than claimants treated by chiropractors.
Similarly, a 1991 study of Oregon Workers' Compensation
Claims examined 201 randomly selected workers' compensation
cases that involved disabling low-back injuries: when
individuals with similar injuries were compared, those who
visited DCs generally missed fewer days of work than those
who visited MDs.
