What Is Chiropractic Care?
Chiropractic care is a non-invasive, holistic approach to health and wellness that focuses on the body’s musculoskeletal and nervous systems. It is based on the fundamental understanding that your body has a powerful self-healing ability, which is largely controlled by the nervous system. This system, protected by the spine, communicates with every cell, tissue, and organ in your body.
A chiropractor’s role is to make sure this communication is unhindered. They achieve this by identifying and correcting “subluxations” — misalignment in the spine that can disrupt nerve signals. These disruptions can lead to various symptoms like pain, discomfort, and decreased function. Chiropractors use hands-on techniques, often referred to as adjustments, to correct these subluxations and restore normal nerve function.
Why Do I Need Chiropractic Care?
Patients often wonder how chiropractic care works and if it can help them. At Community Chiropractic Center, we like to explain that the spine is a lot like a set of tires. Just like tires, the spine wears out over time. If your tires are in good alignment, they last longer. If one tire is out of alignment, the tires wear out quicker, lose tread, and can even have a blowout.
If your spine is out of alignment, it will also wear out quicker. For most adults, the spine has been misaligned for a long time, resulting in pain and conditions like arthritis or disc problems. Our goal is to find those misalignments and areas of poor movement and correct them through precisely targeted chiropractic adjustments so your body can heal and work better and longer.

Who Is Eligible for Chiropractic Therapy?
Chiropractic therapy is a safe and effective treatment option for people of all ages, from infants to older adults. Chiropractic care is also a great preventive measure for maintaining overall health and wellness. However, it’s important to note that while chiropractic therapy is widely applicable, each individual’s health situation is unique. A consultation with a qualified chiropractor is essential to determine the most suitable course of treatment. The chiropractor will assess your health history, current condition, and health goals to tailor a treatment plan that best meets your needs. Pregnant women, individuals with specific spinal conditions, and those with certain types of cancer may require modified or specialized treatments.
What Happens After a Chiropractic Adjustment?
After a chiropractic adjustment, you may experience a range of reactions as your body adapts to the changes made to your nervous system and musculoskeletal alignment. Some people feel immediate relief from their symptoms, while others may experience mild soreness, stiffness, or aching, similar to what you feel after exercise. This is normal and usually resolves within 24 hours.
Increased movement in previously restricted areas can also lead to a sense of relaxation, increased energy, or even a feeling of euphoria. It’s also common for adjustments to improve sleep quality and overall mood due to the enhanced nervous system function.
In some cases, depending on the nature of your treatment, your chiropractor might recommend at-home exercises or stretches to complement the adjustments or lifestyle modifications, such as changes in diet or posture.
Listen to your body following an adjustment. Drink plenty of water to help your body flush out any toxins that have been released, and rest if you feel the need. Always communicate any concerns with your chiropractor, who can provide guidance tailored to your specific situation and needs.
