As the third largest primary health care discipline, Chiropractors focus on the interrelationship of the nervous system, joints and muscles. Chiropractors specialize in working with your body to affect the bones, muscles, joints and nerves to help you feel better again and create optimum health and wellness.
Today's Doctor of Chiropractic is well educated. The science of Chiropractic requires a special emphasis on anatomy, physiology, pathology, neurology, biomechanics, X-ray, spinal adjusting techniques, and related subjects. It takes approximately seven years of education for a candidate to receive a doctorate in chiropractic.
At Haymarket Physical Therapy and Chiropractic, we utilize the most recent advances in technology to put you on the path to recovery as quickly as possible. For example, our treatment plan may include use of Kinesio Taping, a specialized elastic tape applied to the body to support underlying muscles and to alleviate pain by lifting the skin — thus relieving pressure and preventing irritation of the neural and sensory receptors. Because Kinesio Taping, unlike ordinary athletic tape, allows for full range of motion, the body will heal while the individual is engaged in normal activities.
