Manual Manipulation

Manual manipulation is performed by a chiropractor and involves a spinal adjustment to properly align the affected area. It works on the premise that restrictions in spinal movement create reduced functioning in the nerves stemming from restricted areas. With spinal adjustments, the patient's vertebrae are brought into proper alignment, thereby decreasing nerve compression and associated pain and inflammation. Chiropractic care may also involve the use of ice and heat to treat sciatic nerve pain and may even include electric muscle stimulation to control spasms.
