What is Chiropractic Treatment?
Generally, chiropractors maintain a unique focus on spinal manipulation and treatment of surrounding structures. So if you are looking for chiropractic adjustment near me, please do read the rest of this article.
Many studies have concluded that manual therapies commonly used by chiropractors are generally effective for the treatment of lower back pain as well as for treatment of lumbar herniated disc for radiculopathy and neck pain, among other conditions.
When patients with non-specific chronic low back pain are treated by chiropractors, the long-term outcome is enhanced by obtaining maintenance spinal manipulation after the initial intensive manipulative therapy.

Goal Setting
Goal setting for the chiropractic treatment plan is driven by the patient's pain and disability issues and activity intolerance. We set goals to enable us to measure the progress of our clients and treatment.
Consistent among all guidelines of low back pain treatment is the prevention of chronicity. The use of active care (care that is patient-driven such as exercise, activity modification, ergonomic modifications, etc.) is emphasized to accomplish this goal.
Core Chiropractic Treatment
The core of chiropractic usually involves treatment of common lower back pain conditions through manual therapy:
-
Spinal manipulation and manual manipulation. This type of manual manipulation refers to a high-velocity, short lever arm thrust that is applied to abnormal vertebra with the goal of improving functionality, reducing nerve irritability and restoring range of motion in the back. It is also commonly known as "chiropractic adjustment".
-
Mobilisation. Chiropractic mobilisation refers to low velocity manipulation, movement and stretching of the muscles and joints, with the goal of increasing the range of motion within those areas.
-
There is of course firm literature support for chiropractic treatment of lower back pain. Many of the published guidelines recommend chiropractic manipulation to be included in the treatment plan early in the care of lower back pain.
