What is a chiropractic adjustment?

 

An adjustment is a hands-on technique that is used to restore the motion into a joint that was essentially “stuck in place.” This is a bit different than the archaic and albeit false, chiropractic bone out of place model, however, the benefits are equally as powerful. A joint that doesn’t move properly or not at all will not receive the proper nutrients it requires to stay healthy, the muscles that assist the joint’s motion will begin to breakdown and weaken, the joint itself will also begin to degrade and within days will display early signs of osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease). Structures (joints, musculature, connective tissue) that surround and usually complement said joints actions will also have to compensate for the altered functions of the problematic joint and may begin to suffer overuse injuries and will appear to be the primary area of complaint.

 

This latter result is usually the reason people go to the chiropractor in the first place, PAIN. If the restricted motion joint happens to be in the spine, swelling and inflammation will begin to surround said joint complex. This swelling and inflammation is meant to protect the damaged area but when ignored for too long a period of time it may begin to disturb, irritate and inhibit the nerves that exit the spinal canal near the joint. This irritation may lead to other serious health concerns that may not present with any symptoms for many years to come. This is because the nerves and central nervous system that are protected by your vertebrae and spine not only control muscle movement but also your internal organ functions. When those nerve impulses are interrupted the organs that should receive the signals will begin to function abnormally. The implications of this fact are apparent.
