WHY CHIROPRACTIC?
TREATMENT
Chiropractic treatment is based upon biological and physiological sciences that apply to all stages of life. It is an effective treatment for musculoskeletal conditions in patients of all ages including pregnant women and geriatric adults. The musculoskeletal system involves the bones, muscles, cartilage, tendons, joints, connective tissue, and nervous system. Exercises, nutritional and general health recommendations can also be provided to assist in the healing process.
