About Our Chiropractor Directory
Chiropractors are alternative medicine practitioners that specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of back and neck pain. For most patients, the first person to call when dealing with back pain is the primary care physician. Usually primary care physicians will not have back pain expertise but they can refer one to chiropractors or osteopaths. Chiropractors are back pain specialists that utilize a method of treatment called spinal manipulation or subluxation. This method of treatment is unique to chiropractors and involves a holistic approach to alleviating back pain. Chiropractors, also known as doctors of chiropractic medicine or chiropractic physicians, base their type of medical treatments on the principal that spinal joint misalignments interfere with the nervous system and can result in lower resistance to disease. They seek to provide a non-invasive treatment that improves the overall health of the body and not just addressing symptoms of disease.
