Chiropractic is the largest natural primary
health care profession in the world. It's one
of the most praised, yet misunderstood of all
the health care disciplines, despite the fact
that more than 50 million Americans utilize
it each year. There are some 60 thousand chiropractors
around the world. The purpose of chiropractic
is to correct misalignments in the spine, which
are called vertebral subluxations. The only
reason that chiropractors work on the spine is because
of what lies within the spine; the nervous system.
The nervous system is made up of the brain and
spinal cord, and runs through the spine and
out little holes on either side of the spine.

What
causes spinal misalignment?
Most
misalignments in the spine can be linked to
a physical cause like an accident or injury
that is not properly treated. There are two
types of trauma or injuries that can occur in
the spine. First there is Macro
Trauma. This is where people know they
have instantly injured themselves and need help
right away. Secondly, there is Micro
Trauma, or small repetitive injuries
that build up over time. Some examples of these
types of injuries are sitting at a desk job
day after day, year after year, with poor posture.
Also, people who do the same labor type job
day in and day out, like construction workers,
body shop workers, mechanics, painters, computer
jobs, assembly line workers, etc.
