Doctors of chiropractic are the second largest primary care providers. In fact, there are over 60,000 licensed doctors practicing in the United States. Chiropractors believe in the human body’s ability to heal itself without the use of surgery or medication. Chiropractic care maintains the health of the body’s nerves, organs, and connective tissue so the body can continue to function properly. Unlike prescription pain medication or physical therapy, chiropractic targets the misalignments of the spine, thus preventing further discomfort or pain. In addition, chiropractic care is covered by most insurances. In this area alone, over 80 insurances include chiropractic care in their coverage.
