Homewood Chiropractor

If you have never had chiropractic care before and are wondering what is it? Chiropractic is the manipulation by hand of the spine to affect the nerves and muscles. This includes the disks and overall alignment of the spine.

Though chiropractic care is not considered to be pain therapy, many people mistake pain as the problem when in reality pain is a warning that something within the body is not correct.

The pain a person may feel is only a signal or symptom of a more serious issue or problem. Using painkillers many times only lessens the pain allowing the actual problem to continue to progressively worsen as the body begins to break down further through proper chiropractic care people have been able to find relief from pain after suffering for years.

Dr. Barton’s philosophy of chiropractic care for her patients is to find the true problem for the pain or reason for the loss of function, fix it then leave it alone. Dr. Barton treats patients in the shortest amount of time without sacrificing patient care and without unnecessary treatments. She works within the regulations of patient care. Through the use of various natural chiropractic manipulation treatment techniques (CMT) rather than using over-the-counter or prescription medications which may just mask the pain and the problem, Dr. Barton actually is working on correcting the root cause of the pain.
