The main chiropractic treatment technique involves manual therapy, especially manipulation of the spine, other joints, and soft tissues, but may also include exercises and health and lifestyle counseling. The specific focus of chiropractic practice is chiropractic subluxation, a form of pseudoscience.
Your chiropractor may use heat therapy to help relax and loosen your tissues to temporarily relieve tension and prepare your tissues for more intensive manipulation or modification. Before or after an adjustment, soft tissue massage, hydrotherapy session, or another treatment, your chiropractor may place a hot water bottle, heating pad, or wrap over your treatment area for between 5 and 20 minutes.
