Chiropractors use controlled adjustments to joints that are restricted in motion due to issues like muscle spasm or scar tissue. Adjustments generate energy to overcome these restrictions and restore normal range of motion to the joint. The goal of chiropractic care is to restore and maintain overall health and wellness by improving joint, muscle, and nervous system function through techniques like adjustments and exercise. Restoring full function is important for long-term pain relief and prevention of further injury or degeneration.

Adjustments specifically applied to joints can restore motion when the body’s own muscles cannot. Adjustments help relieve the pain, as well as, restore and maintain normal movement, biomechanics and function . The controlled force of adjustments safely generates the energy needed to overcome such restrictions and take a joint back to its normal, full range of motion.
