Chiropractic is a healthcare discipline that is
centered on the role of the spine and central
nervous system in maintaining good health,
and using the recuperative power of the body to
heal itself naturally and efficiently.
The practice of chiropractic focuses on the
relationship between structure (of the spine)
and function (as coordinated by the nervous
system) and how that relationship affects the
preservation and restoration of health.
Chiropractors identify and correct the cause of
health concerns which arise when
misalignments of the small bones that make up
the spine disrupt neurological
communications between your brain and the
cells, tissues, and organs of the body.
Chiropractors correct these misalignments by
gently adjusting the position of the vertebrae of
the spine, reducing or eliminating changes in
the pathology of the nerves thus allowing your
body to properly self-regulate, adapt and heal.

Qualifications To Practice
To practice chiropractic care in the United States, a practitioner must earn a
Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) degree from a college accredited by the Council on
Chiropractic Education (CCE). CCE is the agency certified by the U.S.
Department of Education to accredit chiropractic colleges in the United States.
Admission to a chiropractic college requires a minimum of 90 semester hour
credits (approximately 3 years) of undergraduate study, mostly in the sciences.

classroom work and direct experience caring for patients. Coursework typically
includes instruction in the biomedical sciences, as well as in public health and
research methods. Some chiropractors pursue a 2- to 3-year residency for
training in specialized fields.
