Chiropractic is effective therapy for preventive and wellness care. The anatomical focus on the human spine has created the perception of a Doctor of Chiropractic as just a "back doctor." Although this perception is not entirely incorrect, it is very much incomplete. A D.C. is a valuable resource in matters of workplace safety, stress management, injury prevention, post-accident therapy, and postural correction.
Chiropractors can provide effective treatment for all types of conditions of the joints and of the extremities like the ankle, knee, and shoulder.
