At Itasca Health and Chiropractic serving Itasca, Elk Grove Village, Wood Dale, IL, and the surrounding communities, Dr. Joel Hanson and Dr. Joseph Muraglia provide superior chiropractic care that focuses on establishing the root cause to allow more effective treatment of your symptoms, including pain relief and restoring your health to optimal condition.
The Basics of Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care is often used as an umbrella term for a combination of alternative techniques, therapies, and interventions that target the musculoskeletal and nervous systems, aiming to restore your health by offering pain relief and improved mobility through the manipulation of the spine and other joints. Chiropractors like Dr. Joel and Dr. Joe are passionate about helping patients live pain-free and improving their overall quality of life.
Many people have a perception of chiropractic as being about forceful realignment, often with disconcerting noises. It is far more than that. While it is true that the foundation of chiropractic involves the manipulation of the spine, chiropractic care is generally non-invasive, and natural, functioning well as part of a holistic approach. It also integrates well with other forms of medicine when necessary.
