Many people assume that the spinal cord is very thick, since it serves such an important function in the human body. However, it is actually pretty small, especially for the important role it has in keeping our bodies running smoothly. Its size ranges from between nearly .4 to almost .6 inches in diameter.

The spinal cord does not take all commands from the brain. It is able to send signals directly to the muscles when necessary. The spinal cord has multiple functions and that's why it's so important to keep it healthy!

The word chiropractic is derived from the Greek words "cheir" (hand) and "praxis" (practice). Chiropractors use a hands-on method of care, so the word is extremely fitting!

The "popping" sound that you may hear during an adjustment is actually called cavitation, and it just means that there's space being created between the joints and gases are being released from the spaces. Knuckle cracking produces the same sound, but chiropractors are trained in the best ways to move your joints in order to improve overall function!

Chiropractic care is considered an alternative treatment approach to taking pain-killing drugs or undergoing surgery. Many people don’t realize that similarly to medical doctors, Chiropractors spend years in training — thoroughly learning about subjects like anatomy, physiology, nutrition and holistic health.
