1. 5 Rule About Chiropractic and Chiropractors 1. Chiropractors X-Ray every person Chiropractors are trained to read and take x-rays. Because of this chiropractors are required to follow strict guidelines (IRMER) to who they can and can't x-ray. There always has to be justification to x-ray and in the vast majority of cases this is present. 2. Chiropractors are just cracking bones. That can't be healthy! Chiropractors are not cracking bones. They are delivering a specific impulse into a joint in order to stretch the receptors in the aim to return the joint back to normal function. This is required in cases where the spine is not functioning correctly and has been shown to be a safe method of doing so. 3. Chiropractors only deal with problems in the spine Chiropractors are trained to deal with all problems affecting joints, muscles, and nerves. This ranges from shoulder problems to ankle problems to neck problems. Chiropractors also learn about other pathologies outside of what they treat so they are able to detect if there is something more serious going on and so they can adjust their treatment style to suit the person. 4. Chiropractors claim to cure all problems by adjusting the spine This is false. This was the philosophy in the 1800s when chiropractic was first invented. Since that time, just like medicine, chiropractic has made large advances and now primarily works off current medical research. Some chiropractors still follow the original philosophy and it is important to find a chiropractor that suits you. 5. Chiropractors are just after your money Because chiropractic care isn't free people assume that chiropractors are just after your money. If you were to ask a group of first year students why they wanted to be a chiropractor it would be to help people and not because they wanted to earn money. Chiropractors often given free treatments or reduced rates if someone isn't improving the way they should. It is a situation of a few affect many, a few ill-informed chiropractors have given a bad name for many chiropractors. Contact Information Marshfield Chiropractic and Wellness
