Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a healthcare profession focused on the diagnosis and treatment of neuromuscular disorders, with an emphasis on treatment through manual adjustment and manipulation of the spine. Founded in 1895 by Daniel David Palmer, the practice is rooted in the belief that the body’s musculoskeletal structure, particularly the spine, must be properly aligned for the body to heal itself without surgery or medication. Practitioners, known as chiropractors, primarily target "subluxations"—mechanical disorders of the spine—that they believe can interfere with the nervous system and degrade overall health.
