Chiropractic care can benefit adults as well as children, athletes and others for a variety of other reasons such as tension or pain related to stress, bad posture or accidents at work. A chiropractor, or doctor of chiropractic, holds an undergraduate doctorate acquired after 5 years of university study. He is a first-contact healthcare professional, which means you don't need a referral from your doctor to make an appointment. Chiropractors use spinal or joint manipulation (also called adjustment) to restore the mobility of the spine and peripheral joints. During the adjustment, a small noise, called cavitation or popping, can be heard. This is the sound of gas trapped within the joint being released by the manipulation. I always get the patient’s consent before performing the type of manipulation that produces this noise. Depending on the patient’s condition or preference, mobilizations (i.e., manipulations without cavitation) may also be used. Your health history may be such that spinal manipulation is contraindicated. In such cases, I use only gentle mobilization techniques. Graston Technique® effectively detects and treats injuries to soft tissue such as muscles, tendons, ligaments and fasciae. When the soft tissue is injured, scar tissue (or adhesions) often forms, preventing normal function of the muscle, tendon or ligament. Read more
