"For all the happiness mankind can gain is not
from pleasure but in rest from pain."

Chiropractic is a primary health-care profession that specializes in the diagnosis, treatment and overall management of conditions that are caused or aggravated by biomechanical problems with the joints, ligaments, tendons and nerves of the body, particularly those of the spine. Treatment involves a wide range of manipulative techniques designed to improve the function of the joints, relieving pain and muscle spasm. Advice on posture, diet and exercise may also be given.
