A chiropractor is a neuromusculoskeletal specialist, who focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of patients with back pain, neck pain, and headaches, among other problems. Chiropractors do not use medications or surgery as treatments but rather utilize natural, hands-on methods tailored to each patient’s needs along with exercise and lifestyle. Here at Ashworth Chiropractic, Physical Therapy, and Acupuncture, our chiropractors in Des Moines, IA start by taking a closer look at the way you move. Your chiropractor may also apply gentle pressure to determine precisely which joints and supporting tissue need treatment.
