How Chiropractic Adjustments Really Work [Evidence based explanation]


There is a common misconception that chiropractors put bones back into place. However, there is no evidence to support this overly-stated claim. 

It is more likely that spinal manipulation (chiropractic adjustments) resets internal structures within facet joints. These are called synovial folds or meniscoid entrapments. Other explanations are that chiropractic adjustments break up adhesions in the surrounding soft tissues. In both explanations, you'll notice that the intent is to improve joint mobility to improve the function and posture of the spine.

Additionally, spinal manipulations may increase the circulation and blood flow to deep structures within the spine.

Finally, there are nervous system reflexes involved with chiropractic adjustments. These act as a reset in the spinal cord, relaxing tight muscles and relieving pain.

In this video, Dr. Jeffrey O'Guin, a St. Louis chiropractor, explains the evidence-based and science-backed understanding of how a chiropractic adjustment really works.

Chiropractic Glossary from A to Z : Subluxation

A misalignment in the bony structures of the spine. Subluxations can create pressure or irritation on the various nerves in your spine, and can cause a wide variety of symptoms throughout your body, such as localized pain, soreness, irregularity, and weakness. When pressure is applied on a nerve in your spine, the nerve energy is interrupted, and sometimes this can profoundly affect the function of other systems or organs in your body.
