A chiropractic adjustment, also known as spinal manipulation, is a procedure that is performed to improve spinal motion and enhance the body’s physical function by bringing the bones of a joint back to their normal, natural position. The procedure is performed by trained specialists (chiropractors) who use their hands or a small instrument to apply a controlled, sudden directional thrust into a spinal joint. Besides chiropractors, physical therapists and osteopathic physicians may be trained and licensed to perform chiropractic adjustment as well.
Some of the most common conditions for chiropractic adjustment are low back pain, neck pain, and headache.
The recovery time varies for one person to another. In general, it is recommended that you rest for at least a day or two after each session of chiropractic adjustment, especially if you experience minor side effects, such as fatigue, headache, or pain in the parts of the body that were treated. You may also need to avoid strenuous activity until your condition is fully healed. Your chiropractor will give you a detailed recovery timeline.
According to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), chiropractic adjustment has been proven to provide relief for mild and moderate low back pain. Overall, the procedure is considered safe. Minor and temporary side effects (headache, sore joints, dizziness, fatigue) occur in 23% to 83% adult patients. Serious risks that can be debilitating are very rare, ranging from 1 per 2 million adjustments and 13 per 10,000 patients. These serious risks include:
Spinal cord injury
Spinal disk injury
Stroke
Cauda equina syndrome.
