Chiropractors adjust the movement of the spine to improve and/or restore a normal movement patterns and nerve function. The series of methods that have been developed, researched and refined over the last century are generally bundled together as chiropractic, and individually are referred to as adjustments. A Chiropractic adjustment is a specific correction to an area of the spine where improved nerve function results. It requires a high degree of training and skill to learn the art of an adjustment, and good knowledge of the science involved in the human body to know where to apply an adjustment.
