"Chiropractic" originates from the Greek words cheir, meaning "hand," and praktikos, meaning "done," indicating that it involves hands-on treatment.

Chiropractors primary focus is on the spine, employing manual techniques to assess and address health issues related to the bones, muscles, and joints, commonly referred to as musculoskeletal problems.

Chiropractic Adjustment

A chiropractic adjustment is a hands-on technique, also called spinal manipulation, where a chiropractor uses controlled force to move a joint, most commonly in the spine. The goal is to improve joint motion, reduce pain, and restore function by correcting misalignments or restrictions that can result from injuries or posture habits. The sudden force can sometimes create a popping sound, which is the release of gas bubbles from the joint's lubricating fluid
