Chiropractic Physicians* & Doctors and What They Do

His grandfather found relief and Dr. Jimenez began to think about how he could help others experiencing pain.

It was through this care that Dr. Jimenz realized being a health care chiropractic practitioner was the best way to help people. Like his grandfather, many others have experienced profound results thanks to chiropractic treatment. Dr. Jimenez knew that he wanted to be able to treat patients naturally. He would learn and develop the skills required to practice as a chiropractic physician. He enrolled in a university chiropractic program, graduated, has put in almost 30 years of work, and the rest is history. What to know about chiropractic physicians.

 

A Chiropractic Doctors & Physician*

A Doctor of Chiropractic also known as a D.C. is far more than a back doctor. Chiropractors study the same sciences as doctors of medicine or MDs. They are trained in the latest techniques and approaches, diagnostic tools, and developing effective treatment plans to manage various health conditions. However, chiropractic physicians specialize in non-invasive/non-surgical/non-pharmacological health care protocols and focus on whole-body health and natural healing. Wide range of factors that can impact an individual’s health like:

  • Biomechanical dysfunction
  • Diet
  • Genetics
  • Trauma
  • Hygiene
  • Emotions
  • Environment - Home/work
  • Infection/s
  • Lack of exercise
  • Posture
  • Stress levels

Based on these factors a chiropractor is able to determine the most effective, beneficial natural treatment plan.

 

Work

Chiropractic physicians encourage individuals to look at natural, medication/surgery-free approaches to improve health, reduce, and alleviate painful symptoms. They are often called upon for preventive and rehabilitative health care.
