Chiropractors are experts trained in the neuromusculoskeletal system (nerves, muscles and the skeleton). Chiropractors are part of a health care profession that practice a manual approach to health care that includes patient assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. In particular, chiropractors assess patients for conditions related to the spine, pelvis, extremity joints, and their effect on the nervous system. Following a thorough patient history and physical assessment, chiropractors are able to provide a differential diagnosis for the patient’s presenting condition(s) and develop a comprehensive treatment plan.
