What are symptoms?

A symptom is an indication of a disorder or disease, such as low back pain, neck pain, headaches, pins and needle sensations, shoulder, arm and hand problems or weakness. Symptoms may be accompanied by objective signs of disease such as abnormal laboratory test results or findings during a physical examination.

A chiropractic examination is very similar to standard examination procedures administered by all health care providers. With that said, how chiropractors examine the structure and function of the spine and then determine specific chiropractic treatments separates chiropractic care from other disciplines.

A Symptom is the body's warning system, alerting you that something is wrong.
