Chiropractic
Chiropractic (from Greek, meaning treatment by hand) is a branch of the healing arts, which is concerned with human health and disease processes. Chiropractors make no use of drugs or surgery, and refer patients for medical care when those treatments may be necessary. The chiropractic profession was founded in the United States in 1895 and is now established in more than 70 countries.
The practice of chiropractic emphasizes clinical interventions that support the natural or innate ability of the body to heal itself (homeostasis) and include:
Manual procedures: spinal adjustment; other joint manipulation; joint mobilization; soft tissue techniques.
Exercise and rehabilitative programs.
Patient education on spinal health, posture, nutrition, and other lifestyle modifications.
Other supportive methods; e.g. use of back supports and orthotics, interferrential, ultrasound, etc.
Previously almost all chiropractors graduated from North American colleges. There are now colleges in Australia (2), Brazil (2), Canada (2), Denmark, France, Japan, South Korea, New Zealand, South Africa (2), United Kingdom (4), and United States (17). In most countries these colleges are in affiliated with universities.
