Chiropractic Services in NJ Chiropractic services are those that involve a range of diagnostic methods that include orthopedic and neurological evaluation in order to provide non-invasive/ non-surgical back pain services to chronic pain related to the spine and nervous system.
Chiropractors use safe, spine manipulation methods and conservative management in order to relieve patients of back pain and spine related complications.
"Since the inception of chiropractic medicine in 1895, chiropractors have held as a primary tenet that biomechanical and structural derangement of the spine can affect the nervous system.
Because the nervous system is so intimately related to the spine from an anatomical standpoint, identifying and restoring spinal structural integrity through chiropractic treatments can improve the health of the individual by reducing pressure on sensitive neurological tissue.
The patient history helps the chiropractor to identify the area(s) of complaint. Questions about family history, dietary habits, past history of other treatment(s) (chiropractic, osteopathic, medical and other), occupational history, psychosocial history, and other areas will be asked by the chiropractor to help determine the nature of the illness.
It is important to note that doctors of chiropractic do not utilize drugs or surgery in their practice. However, there are times when a chiropractor will recommend that the patient consult another practitioner if these or other methods of treatment are indicated." -Chiropractic Treatments for Back Pain By Steven G.
