Scope of practice
Who can be treated?
Chiropractic care can be used by everyone as the techniques chosen are adapted according to the individual’s needs: body frame (physique/size), age and mental status (anxiety/nervousness). Therefore some of our patients are over 80 years old (despite their possibly advanced osteoporotic bone changes) or just a few weeks old.What can be treated?
