| Chiropractic is a drug-free, non-surgical science and, as such, does not include pharmaceuticals or surgery. The primary, anatomical focus of the Doctor of Chiropractic on the human spine has created the perception of the Chiropractor as just a "back doctor." This perception is not entirely incorrect and it is very much incomplete. Chiropractors focus on the nervous system (the brain and spinal cord) which manages the body’s vast chemical interactions to help ensure proper function and consequently better health. The brain sends messages through the spinal cord across a huge network of spinal nerves to deliver information to every cell, organ and system of the body. Chiropractors promote greater health and function by removing interference in this system. Chiropractic involves a system of therapies aimed at restoring normal function by manipulation and treatment of the structures of the body, especially those of the spinal column. |
