Chiropractic
is a branch of the healing arts which is based upon the understanding
that good health depends, in part, upon a normally functioning
nervous system. Chiropractic emphasizes the idea that the
cause of many disease processes and abnormalities begin with
the body's inability to adapt to its environment. It addresses
these abnormalities by locating and adjusting a musculoskeletal
area of the body which is functioning improperly, rather than
by the use of drugs. Although Chiropractors make no use of
drugs or surgery, they do refer patients for medical care
when necessary.
