One of the most common questions people ask is – what chiropractic is and does it treat?
Many think that this discipline can only treat health problems directly related to the spine, including hernia, cervical, lumbosciatalgia, and back pain.
Instead, chiropractic can help multiple symptoms, as it also affects the nervous system, contained within the spine. Removing the subluxations (= displacements of the vertebrae) present in the spine, therefore, allows to eliminate the problems connected to a malfunction of the nervous system and to restore complete well-being that goes far beyond simple back pain.
