The Role of Chiropractic Adjustments in Health and Healing

Chiropractic adjustments are just one of many techniques that chiropractors utilize in treatment plans. However, they are one of the most effective. Learn more about this technique in the guide below from Dr. Katz and his team in East Rockaway, NY.

The Purpose of Adjustments

Like any machine, the human body consists of many different parts that have specific jobs and a specific place. When any of these parts are not in the proper place or don’t fit as they should, the body – or the machine – cannot function as it is supposed to.

Adjustments are a method of ensuring that the skeletal system is properly aligned and that there is no undue strain on the musculoskeletal system. Alignment can be restored through hands-on adjustments or the use of a handheld instrument.

Benefits of Adjustments

Adjustments are the key to relieving various symptoms throughout the body. As alignment is restored, issues that restrict the body’s healing processes are removed. This includes misalignments, herniated discs, tension, and more.

Once removed, the patient's range of motion can be restored, which reduces the likelihood of developing stiffness. Additionally, blood flow is improved, meaning that the muscles, joints, and various other components are receiving the oxygen and healing nutrients they need. In short, adjustments restore alignment and balance to the body, allowing for optimal health and natural healing.

Common Symptoms and Conditions Treated By Adjustments

Spinal adjustments are employed to treat a variety of issues related to the musculoskeletal system, including but not limited to:

  • Back and neck pain
  • Shoulder pain
  • Hip pain
  • Headaches and migraines
  • Postural issues
  • Auto injuries
  • Work injuries
  • Sports injuries
  • Herniated discs
  • Nerve compression
  • Sciatica

Additionally, adjustments help improve nerve function by relieving pressure on the nerves. When this occurs, the nerves can transmit messages properly between the brain and the body. As nerve compression is linked to a variety of health conditions, restoring nerve function can provide relief from many symptoms that might not seem related to the spine.

Typically, adjustments are combined with other techniques, such as soft tissue therapy, spinal decompression, and therapeutic exercises. Together, these techniques can help patients achieve lasting relief from their symptoms, prevent future pain, and enjoy optimal health.
