Chiropractors predominately treat subluxations or joint dysfunctions of the spinal column. Chiropractic physicians also are able to manipulate various other joints of the body that may be misaligned. What specific symptoms can Chiropractors help? Neck pain, low back pain, headaches, migraines, arthritis, disc problems, arm numbness, sciatica, sports injuries and whiplash injuries. What is an Adjustment? An adjustment is a correction of a joint dysfunction/subluxation to its normal position in the spine which restores normal motion and reduces nerve pressure. How many years is a Chiropractic physician in training? In the State of Florida, all Chiropractic physicians must have a Bachelor’s degree prior to entering Chiropractic school. This Bachelor’s degree must have specified prerequisites in biology, chemistry, physics, biochemistry, human anatomy and others. Chiropractic school consists of 4 years of training. It is extremely demanding and rigorous. The first two years of chiropractic school are nearly identical to the first two years of medical school. After these first two years, instead of going into pharmaceuticals or surgery, chiropractic students are trained to treat various conditions, with spinal adjustments and manipulation.
