When to see a Chiropractor
Chiropractors are spine, muscle, joint and nervous system experts who receive years of post-secondary academic and clinical education.

Using primarily their hands, your chiropractor will treat these issues without medication or surgery to restore your mobility and help prevent them from returning.
