E-mail Print PDF
As part of their training Chiropractors also spend many hours learning the diagnosis and management of conditions relating to other joints such as the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee and the foot. Treatment may involve joint manipulation and mobilisation along with muscle balancing and injury prevention advice. In addition some chiropractors take postgraduate courses focusing on the treatment and management of 'extremity' and sports injury conditions.
