That's changing. Years of prejudice and bias are giving way to research showing the benefits of chiropractic care. As more and more Plainfield folks seek alternatives to drugs and surgery, more and more medical practitioners are referring their patients to chiropractors.

Chiropractors recognize two types of nerve disorders involved in vertebral subluxation. The least common is a pinched nerve that diminishes nerve supply to an affected organ or tissue. More common is the irritated nerve (facilitative lesion) which overexcites nerve communications to an affected organ or tissue. Chiropractic care has been shown to help with both types.
