Chiropractic...
Chiropractic is
a complementary and alternative
health care profession which
focuses on diagnosing, treating,
and preventing mechanical
disorders of the musculoskeletal
system, their effects on the
nervous system, and on general
health.
Chiropractic contends that spinal joint misalignments, which chiropractors call vertebral subluxations, can interfere with the nervous system and result in diminished health. Mainstream medicine does not believe that vertebral subluxations affect general health and differentiates it from the medical use of the term subluxation. Chiropractors may specialize in treating low back problems or sports injuries, or may combine chiropractic with manipulation of the extremities, physiotherapy modalities, nutrition, or exercises to increase spinal strength or improve overall health. They may also use other complementary and alternative methods as a part of a holistic treatment approach. Chiropractors are not trained or licensed to prescribe drugs. Depending on the country or state in which the Chiropractic school is located, they may train in minor surgery. All are trained to recognize signs of cancer, diabetes, and infectious diseases and refer these patients to medical physicians. There is evidence both for and against spinal manipulation, a technique used by chiropractors, in the treatment of acute low back pain, tension headaches and certain musculoskeletal issues.[1] There are no objective controlled trials with definitive conclusions for or against chiropractic claims concerning other health benefit. | |
