ChiropracticChiropractic was founded in the year 1895 by a Canadian gentlemen by the name of Daniel David Palmer and operates on the principal that many, if not all health problems can be treated by the manipulation of the spine.The word Chiropractic is taken from the two words ‘cheros’ and ‘praktikos’ and means literally ‘done by hand’.The philosophy behind this therapy, like many others, is that the body has a powerful ability to heal itself. The body’s structure (meaning the spine) and its function are closely related, and it is the goal of chiropractic therapy to ‘normalise’ this relationship.Generally speaking, people seek out a chiropractor when experiencing lower back or neck pain.A treatment would typically consist of various manipulation techniques designed to improve joint function, and relieve pain and muscle spasms.Chiropractic is used to treat back pain, headaches, whiplash and sporting injuries.
