Downtown Seattle Fremont Chiropractor

The very most common therapeutic procedure called for by chiropractors is known as "spinal manipulation," also known as "chiropractic adjustment." The purpose of manipulation is to re-establish joint range of motion. Whether the injury is created by a single traumatic event-- such as improper raising of a heavy item, or with repeated stresses-- such as sitting in an uncomfortable position along with weak posture for long length of time. Damaged tissues go through physical and chemical changes that can induce inflammation, pain, and diminished function for any individual. Fine-tuning of the affected joint and tissues, brings back mobility, thereby alleviating pain and muscle tightness, and making it possible for tissues to heal.
