Where does Chiropractic originate from?

Chiropractic is a natural healing art that developed from the research and clinical work done by Canada's own Dr. D.D. Palmer in 1895, in Davenport, Iowa.

Chiropractic is founded on three fundamental principles:

1) Disease may be caused by irritation of the nervous system.

2) Irritation of the nervous system may be caused by alterations of the musculoskeletal system, (These alterations are typically misalignments and / or dysfunctions of the joints of the spine and its related structures.)

3) Correction of these misalignments, and the subsequent relief of the nervous system irritation, may reduce or eliminate disease in various parts or functions of the body.
