A chiropractor helps to restore stability and function to your spine by realigning vertebrae by the use of spinal manipulation. By this method, neck pain, back pain and headaches among others can be relieved. A physical therapist evaluates and helps to restore and maintain maximum function and movement for their patients.

A physical therapist evaluates posture, flexibility, range of motion, body mechanics, coordination, balance and general mobility. This professional also evaluates endurance like the ability of a person to climb stairs, walk and get in and out of a bed or a chair. You can benefit in many ways if you visit one of the Manhattan NY chiropractic offices, which can combine the services of physiotherapists and chiropractors.

A physiotherapist can develop a program that is individualized to help relieve pain and restore function. They can work with soft tissue and joint injuries such as dislocation and fractures, orthopedic conditions like osteoporosis and low back pain, neurological conditions like Parkinson's disease and stroke, and workplace injuries including sports injuries and repetitive stress disorders. They can educate patients concerning what might have caused their problem, give patients a few manual hands on techniques, and provide exercise instructions that patients can use at home to improve function.

Chiropractors and physiotherapists in chiropractic offices in Manhattan, work together to assist people who have shoulder problems, ankle and knee issues, orthopedic injuries and sports injuries. They are also able to help people who have had joint replacements, neck pain, lower back pain and rotator cuff repairs. A physiotherapist is also experienced in balance and vestibular therapy, which can be of benefit to people who have suffered falls after they felt dizzy or due to another reason.

Chiropractors can perform grade one up to grade five chiropractic adjustments. They range from soft tissue mobilization to joint adjustment, pain management, acupuncture and electrical stimulation. Physical therapists can employ several manual therapy techniques like neurologic rehabilitation, joint manipulation, sports performance, gait training, tissue mobilization, muscle coordination and wound care among others.

A chiropractor is the only practitioner qualified to do chiropractic adjustments. A physical therapist is the only medical practitioner trained to give patients physical therapy. The care offered by both these professionals is effective.
