What is Chiropractic Care?

Wendy Weisflog Explains:


Chiropractic care is grounded in the tenet that the body can heal itself when the skeletal system is correctly aligned and the nervous system is functioning properly. As one of the most popular alternative therapies, Chiropractic care is often used to treat acute pain and problems of the spine, including lower back pain and whiplash.

As a Scottsdale, Arizona Chiropractor, my goal is to relieve present pain and recommend appropriate lifestyle changes to prevent the problem from occurring again. I use a technique that focuses not merely on a "quick" adjustment but a significant amount of time is spent with each patient, incorporating other aspects necessary to correct the patient's specific injury. If necessary, extremity adjustments will be administered; however, usually the muscular release treatment will improve the problem, and the patient will feel less pain almost instantaneously.
