Description
Chiropractors adjust the spinal column and other articulations of the body to diagnose, treat and prevent disease and abnormalities of the human body caused by interference with the nervous system. They examine patients to determine the nature and extent of the disorder, using X ray machines, electrocardiographs, otoscopes, proctoscopes, and other instruments and equipment. They manipulate the spine or other involved area. Chiropractors may use supplementary measures, such as exercise, electrical stimulation, rest, water, light, heat, nutritional therapy, and minor surgery.
