Chiropractic subluxation

Chiropractic subluxation refers to a misalignment or partial dislocation of a vertebra in the spine that may disrupt normal nerve function and movement. It is believed to cause interference with the communication between the brain and body, potentially leading to discomfort, pain, or decreased function. Chiropractors assess for these subluxations and often use spinal adjustments or manipulations to help restore proper alignment, aiming to improve overall health and well-being. While the concept is widely used in chiropractic care, scientific evidence supporting subluxation as a cause of health issues is varied, and it's important to discuss concerns with a healthcare professional.
