Chiropractic care is primarily focused on a technique called joint manipulation. Joint manipulation is a technique used by chiropractors to introduce motion into joints that have a decreased range of motion. The joint is taken to the end of its range of motion and then is very quickly pushed slightly past that point. This is done in a very controlled and safe manner. Performing this technique stretches the joint capsule, the ligaments that hold the joint together, and returns the joint to its normal range of motion.
