Welcome to Orthopedics & Chiropractic! This blog is meant to provide information regarding certain orthopedic injuries; what they are, how they occur, and how chiropractic may be able to help. My experience interning at an orthopedic clinic showed me that majority of the population has little knowledge on orthopedic injuries; even fewer know that chiropractors can treat many injuries that do not require surgery. The important thing to remember, whether a patient or physician, is that chiropractic care for orthopedic injuries is not meant to replace traditional medical care. It is meant to co-manage an injury in order to prevent surgery, speed up recovery, and return the patient to optimal health.
The next blog will begin the information on specific injuries. If there is anything in particular that you would like to ask or learn about, feel free to e-mail me your questions and requests.
"The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest her or his patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease."
