Chiropractic Chiropractic is defined as the treatment of human ailments without the use of drugs or surgery. It includes the use of manipulation of the segments of the spine and adjoining structures in order to effect the immune system in order to allow the body to restore to a more normal environment. Chiropractors typically call this interference in the nerve transmission and / or expression a ‘subluxation’. This manifestation is most frequently seen in low back pain, neck pain, and any impingement on the nerves that affect internal organs or related structures.  Floral Healthplex employs more than 200 different manipulative techniques to accommodate all patient needs regardless of age, gender, or presence of other clinical conditions.
