Chiropractic is a type of health care that focuses on the relationship between the body’s structure, primarily of the backbone, and its effect on function. The basic concepts of chiropractic can be described by the following:
- The body has a powerful, natural ability to heal itself.
- The body’s structure, primarily that of the backbone, and its function are closely related, and this relationship affects health
- Chiropractic therapy is given with the goals of normalizing this relationship between structure and function and helping the body as it heals
