Chiropractors use hands-on spinal manipulation and other alternative treatments. The theory is that proper alignment of the body's musculoskeletal structure, particularly the spine, will enable the body to heal itself without surgery or medication. Manipulation is used to restore mobility to joints restricted by tissue injury caused by a traumatic event, such as falling, or repetitive stress, such as sitting without proper back support.

Chiropractic treatment is primarily used as a pain relief alternative for muscles, joints, bones, and connective tissue, such as cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. It is sometimes used in conjunction with conventional medical treatment.

Physiotherapy is a branch of medicine that uses techniques such as advanced muscle release, joint mobilization and acupuncture to help treat most injuries. They also may use therapeutic modalities such as heat, ultrasound, IFC, and exercises to help in your recovery. Through their extensive training and education your physiotherapist can do wonders for patients suffering from a multitude of problems which may cause pain and immobility.
