Chiropractic is a complementary and alternative medicine that focuses on diagnosing, treating, and preventing mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine. The practice of chiropractic involves using hands-on manipulation, as well as other alternative treatments such as exercise, nutrition, and lifestyle counselling.

Chiropractic adjustments are typically used to treat a variety of conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint pain. By restoring proper joint alignment, chiropractic care can help improve joint function, reduce pain and inflammation, and promote natural healing within the body.
