The term “subluxation” is used by doctors of chiropractic to depict the altered position of the vertebra and subsequent functional loss, which determines the location for the spinal manipulation.  You may have heard of a subluxation referred to as a misalignment.   These misalignments are joint dysfunctions that may cause you to experience discomfort, pain, decreased mobility, or many other symptoms.  Joint dysfunction usually goes unnoticed until there is pain involved. Unfortunately the absence of pain is not an indication of health!  Usually by the time you are experiencing pain and symptoms the problem may have been present for months.

The great news is you can prevent or slow down these conditions and symptoms with regular chiropractic care.  For a complimentary posture analysis and consultation call Chait Chiropractic Center at 941-371-1070.   Dr. Chait can advise you on how to better take care of your posture and spinal health before you experience pain and symptoms.
