About
The Chiropractic Department serves the Stockbridge-Munsee Community and the surrounding areas. Chiropractic is a licensed healthcare profession focused on the diagnosis, care, and prevention of disorders of the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine. Chiropractors use hands-on techniques, like spinal adjustments, to help relieve pain, improve mobility, and support the body’s natural healing ability and promote holistic health. They may also use other treatments like soft tissue therapies, lifestyle recommendations, stress management, and nutritional advice.
Approach
Chiropractors approach patient care in a manner similar to that used in conventional medicine. They interview the patient, obtain a detailed health history, perform an examination, and develop a working diagnosis. Then depending on the patient’s needs, they develop a care plan, start treatment, and monitor the patient’s progress. Chiropractors most often treat problems related to the musculoskeletal system.
Treatment
The manual treatment methods used by chiropractors range from stretching and sustained pressure to specific joint manipulations, which are usually delivered by hand and involve a quick and gentle thrust. Depending on the patient’s needs, instrument assisted manipulation can also be used. The purpose of the manipulations is to improve joint motion and function. Manipulations are most commonly done on the spine, but other parts of the body may also be treated in this way.
