Chiropractic care is a healthcare profession that focuses on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal disorders, primarily involving the spine. It uses hands-on spinal manipulation and other non-invasive techniques to improve function and alleviate pain.

Chiropractic treatments are commonly used for:
• Back pain
• Neck pain
• Headaches and migraines
• Sciatica
• Joint pain (shoulders, knees, hips, etc.)
• Sports injuries
• Postural issues

Yes, chiropractic care is generally safe when performed by a licensed and trained chiropractor. It is a non-invasive, drug-free approach to pain relief and mobility improvement.

A typical session includes:
• A health assessment and discussion of symptoms
• Physical examination, possibly including X-rays
• Spinal adjustments, manual therapy, or other treatments
• Personalized recommendations for posture, stretches, or exercises

Most adjustments do not hurt. Some patients feel immediate relief, while others may experience mild soreness similar to post-exercise discomfort, which usually fades within 24-48 hours.

The number of sessions varies depending on the condition being treated. Some patients experience relief after one or two visits, while others with chronic conditions may need ongoing care.
