{"id":16,"count":2,"description":"Chiropractic care is a health discipline focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine. Chiropractors use hands-on spinal manipulation and other alternative treatments, believing that proper alignment of the body's musculoskeletal structure, especially the spine, will enable the body to heal itself without surgery or medication.\r\n\r\nSpinal manipulation is used to restore mobility to joints restricted by tissue injury caused by a traumatic event, such as falling, or repetitive stress, such as sitting without proper back support. Chiropractic care is primarily used as a pain relief alternative for muscles, joints, bones, and connective tissue, such as cartilage, ligaments, and tendons. It is sometimes used in conjunction with conventional medical treatment.\r\n\r\nThe core of chiropractic care for spine health involves a comprehensive approach that may include spinal adjustments, manual therapies, lifestyle recommendations, and exercise programs designed to align the spine and improve posture, thereby enhancing overall health and well-being.","link":"https:\/\/hansonchiropractic.net\/category\/exercises\/","name":"Exercises","slug":"exercises","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hansonchiropractic.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/16"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hansonchiropractic.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hansonchiropractic.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/hansonchiropractic.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=16"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
