WHAT IS STRAIGHT
CHIROPRACTIC?
“Straight” chiropractic uses
chiropractic methods of examination, analysis
and adjusting to accomplish the objective of
correcting vertebral subluxation. Vertebral
subluxation is a condition in which a vertebra
becomes slightly misaligned with an adjacent
segment in such a way as to disturb nerve
function, interfering with the body's striving
to maintain its own health.
"Straight" means a total commitment to the
teaching, research and practice of chiropractic
focused on correcting vertebral subluxation. The
word "straight" is in the college's name to
identify it with this distinct mission.
