Chiropractic is THE choice for millions of patients who want safe and effective healthcare \u2013\u00a0<span class=\"color_28\"><strong>without the use of surgery or drugs.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_7\">Chiropractors \u2013 also called doctors of chiropractic or chiropractic physicians \u2013 use natural methods to treat the biomechanics, structure, and function of the spine and its effects on the muscle and nervous systems. Chiropractic emphasizes the role played by the proper function of these systems in the preservation and restoration of health.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_7\">Chiropractors also concentrate on the factors involved in a patient\u2019s overall health, including diet and proper nutrition, activity levels and exercise, other lifestyle choices, and much more.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"font_7\">What is \u201cSubluxation?\u201d<\/h3>\n<p class=\"font_7\">A subluxation \u2013 also known as \u201cnerve interference\u201d \u2013 is the misalignment of vertebrae in the spinal column. When a subluxation occurs, it often affects the function of the nervous system, which may have a negative effect on quality of life.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"font_7\">Chiropractic Adjustment<\/h3>\n<p class=\"font_7\">Chiropractors typically care for subluxations with a procedure known as a \u201cchiropractic adjustment.\u201d This hands-on technique for restoring spinal and other joint mobility is performed by manually applying a controlled force to joints that have either become too restricted in their movement or too mobile, as a result of a tissue injury.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_7\">By realigning the affected vertebrae through a chiropractic adjustment, the chiropractor eliminates this nerve interference and proper bodily function is restored.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"font_7\">Chiropractic Care<\/h3>\n<p class=\"font_7\">Chiropractors diagnose injuries and other conditions of the nervous and musculoskeletal systems, which includes the muscles, ligaments, and joints of the spine and the extremities. Chiropractors treat patients of all ages with pain, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Back and neck pain<\/li>\n<li>Tension, cluster, migraine, and other headaches<\/li>\n<li>Sciatica<\/li>\n<li>Joint pain<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"font_7\">Chiropractors treat patients of all ages with conditions such as osteoarthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, sprains and strains, postural issues, and a variety of other nonneuromusculoskeletal conditions, all without the use of surgery or drugs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_7\">Chiropractors also have great success in treating on-the-job injuries, sports injuries, and injuries associated with auto accidents. Chiropractic care is not just for patients with pain, however. Chiropractors \u2013 with their patient-centered, whole person approach \u2013 are the ultimate wellness doctors. Regular chiropractic care has been shown to be helpful in maintaining general health and well-being and increasing vitality.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_column_3 et_pb_column et-last-child et_flex_column et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et_flex_column_6_24 et_flex_column_8_24_tablet et_flex_column_24_24_phone\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_image_0 et_pb_image et_animated et_pb_module et_flex_module\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/archiro.ce21newsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/u_i8v3zqslrc-chiropractic-care-8539606-300x300.jpg\" title=\"u_i8v3zqslrc-chiropractic-care-8539606\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archiro.ce21newsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/u_i8v3zqslrc-chiropractic-care-8539606-300x300.jpg 300w\" class=\"wp-image-196\" \/><\/span><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"et_pb_blurb_0 et_pb_blurb et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_blurb_position_top et_animated et_pb_module et_flex_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_blurb_content et_flex_module\"><div class=\"et_pb_main_blurb_image\"><span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap et_pb_only_image_mode_wrap\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/archiro.ce21newsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/finddoc.jpg\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1076\" srcset=\"https:\/\/archiro.ce21newsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/finddoc.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/archiro.ce21newsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/finddoc-1280x717.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/archiro.ce21newsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/finddoc-980x549.jpg 980w, https:\/\/archiro.ce21newsites.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/finddoc-480x269.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) and (max-width: 1280px) 1280px, (min-width: 1281px) 1920px, 100vw\" class=\"et_animated wp-image-63\" \/><\/span><\/div><div class=\"et_pb_blurb_container\"><h4 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">Find a Doctor<\/h4><\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_button_module_wrapper et_pb_button_0_wrapper\"><a class=\"et_pb_button_0 et_pb_button et_pb_bg_layout_light et_pb_module et_flex_module\" href=\"https:\/\/acpa.ce21.com\/directory\" target=\"_blank\">Learn More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-193","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
