1. How Can Spinal Misalignments Cause Problems?
A person’s spine can be out of alignment for weeks, months, or years before symptoms develop. When the spine is out of alignment, this creates biomechanical dysfunction leading to inflammation and degeneration in the joints, muscles, and nerves. Over time, scar tissue and adhesions develop, restricting movement, nutrient flow, and spinal mobility. Eventually, impaired movement and biomechanical dysfunction in the spine leads to pain, instability, degenerative arthritis, and impaired nerve function.

2. What is Chiropractic Spine Care?
Chiropractic spine care is a non-surgical approach to managing spine pain and biomechanical dysfunction. The scientific literature has found that neck and back pain are chronic conditions that tend to come and go throughout a person's lifetime. The frequency of spine pain reoccurrence can be directly related to poor self-management strategies and low health literacy. Spine care management is only effective when healthcare professionals collaborate to provide patients with various treatment options and effective self-care strategies. Interdisciplinary team-based spine care reduces the burden on primary care physicians, and fosters collaboration and coordination between healthcare providers.

3. What Kind of Education Do Chiropractors Have?
In chiropractic school students are required to dissect human cadavers, study advanced medical science, and pass national board exams. Chiropractic students completing their doctoral programs are often left with school loan debts well over $300,000. The following are the classroom hours averaged from 18 chiropractic schools and 22 medical schools.
