Chiropractic
therapy
A system of healing primarily based on the theory that illness in the human body
results from an absence of regular nerve function. Chiropractors employ remedy
by manipulation and particular adjustment of body buildings, such as the spinal
column, and use bodily remedy when necessary. Chiropractors thus are involved
with the connection between the musculoskeletal constructions and functions of
the body and the nervous system within the restoration and maintenance of
health. The chiropractic methodology was based in 1895 by an Iowa merchant, D.D.
Palmer, who reportedly cured deafness in a single particular person by
realigning a misaligned vertebrae. Medical doctors of chiropractic are educated
in and thru accredited chiropractic colleges. Procedures embody the adjustment
and manipulation of the articulations and adjoining tissues of the human body,
particularly of the spinal column, and sometimes associated therapies such as
warmth therapy, traction, and diet counseling.
