The Benefits of Chiropractic Care
150,000 million Americans seek alternative medicine options.

Number one on the list is chiropractic care, which is a safe, healthy way to treat pain, stiffness and other health issues.

Not everyone feels comfortable going to a chiropractor for the first time. Many people are frightened to get an adjustment simply because of the loud sounds that the neck and back make when an adjustment is performed.

In this segment, Chiropractic Physician, Dr. David Friedman, takes you through the basics of chiropractic care and why it's so important for achieving a healthier lifestyle. According to Dr. Friedman, an adjustment doesn't hurt and in fact the noises patients hear are actually tiny pockets of air being released in the joint, which relieves pain or pressure.  

If you are thinking about seeing a chiropractor, but you're not sure what to expect, this segment is a must-listen!
