The chiropractic adjustment is defined as a specific thrust or impulse applied to a spinal bone, by hand or by instrument, to correct a subluxation (misalignment) and remove nerve system interference. It is the chiropractor’s greatest tool for restoring proper spinal alignment, range of motion and nerve function to allow one’s body to heal itself. As the only healthcare professionals trained in delivering adjustments, Doctors of Chiropractic spend hours of classroom and clinical study devoted solely to learning the art of adjusting and the variety of techniques that have been developed over time.
