What is an Adjustment?

Adjustments are used by chiropractors to reposition the bones that are out of proper alignment, or subluxated. There are various techniques for adjusting the vertebrae. Depending on the patient's age, condition, and the doctor's training and experience, any of these techniques may be used. The purpose of the adjustments is to remove any interference to the nervous system, which improves spinal function and overall health. Adjustments are safe for all ages and are completely natural.
