Dr. Wickiser Asks...

Why is a "slipped disc" unlikely?

Separating each spinal vertebra is a disc. Its fibrous outer ring holds in a jelly-like material. Because of the way a disc attaches to the spinal bones above and below it, it can't actually "slip." However, a disc can bulge, tear, herniate, thin and collapse. But it can't slip.

Are chiropractors just concerned with the spine?

Our interest in the spine is because it covers the major communications conduit between your brain and your body. As a Anderson chiropractor my job is to locate areas (usually along the spine) that interfere with proper nerve communications to and from your brain. Chiropractic adjustments help restore nervous system integrity. In this way, chiropractic care can affect the function of your entire body.
