While medicine searched for a disease process, assigned labels to disorders, and prescribed the "medicine of the day," chiropractic rejected the use of drugs and surgery as treatment options. Chiropractic grew as a completely natural approach to healing, drawing on the body's own recuperative powers.
Doctors of chiropractic use the same time-honored methods of consultation, case history, physical examination, laboratory analysis and x-ray examination as any other doctor. In addition, they provide a careful chiropractic structural examination, paying particular attention to the spine.
The examination of the spine to evaluate structure and function is what makes chiropractic different from other health care procedures. Your spinal column is a series of movable bones which begin at the base of your skull and end in the center of your hips. 31 pairs of spinal nerves extend down the spine from the brain and exit through a series of openings. The nerves leave the spine and form a complicated network which influences every living tissue in your body.
Our Largo Chiropractic office uses "state of the art" medical equipment to help diagnose and treat your injury.

Massage Therapy
Massage does much more than create a pleasant sensation on the skin, it also works on the soft tissues improving muscle tone. It also stimulates blood circulation and improves the elimination of waste and toxins throughout the body.
Stretching Can Help
Tight back and leg muscles can be very painful. Stretching regularly can often help.
