The Lenox Hill personal injury attorneys at Banville Law have provided this article on the history of chiropractic care hoping that it will help local residents obtain the information they need regarding how chiropractic care may help improve their quality of life.
Daniel David Palmer is credited with creating the name chiropractic care in 1887 when he opened the Palmer School of Chiropractic. In 1885, while working as a magnetic healer, Palmer helped a janitor in his office by helping him to correct a misalignment in his spine. Not long after the alignment, the janitor told Palmer that his hearing, which was noted to be diminished, had improved as well as his back pain.
Palmer believed that the body was like a machine and instead of prescribing drugs, the spine and joints could be manipulated to improve the overall health of a patient. About 20 years after writing his first descriptions of the practice and opening his school, chiropractic care was acknowledged as a form of medicine in Kansas and other states soon followed. It wasn't long before practitioners had to be licensed in order to treat patients.
Modern chiropractors used tools, movements, and gentle pressure to realign the body. There are many potential benefits associated with chiropractic care, including:
Chiropractic care can also help to prepare the body for an upcoming surgery and is often used in conjunction with other medical treatments.
When you're searching for a new chiropractor, you should consider asking potential practitioners the following questions:
Always be sure to check online reviews and ask your other physicians for recommendations.
The amount of time that an individual patient needs to spend with a chiropractor depends upon their medical history, the other treatments they may be undergoing, and their current medical conditions. For some, a few weeks will be sufficient. Other patients, however, will require ongoing care for the rest of their lives.
