What Is Chiropractic?

Chiropractic was founded in 1895.  It is based on the scientific fact that the nervous system controls the function of every cell, tissue, organ and system of the body. The brain and the spinal cord are protected by bones, the skull and vertebra. When the vertebra lose their normal position or move improperly, they can irritate the nervous system.
