Difference between Chiropractic and Massage Therapy
Chiropractic
Chiropractic has nothing to do with massage therapy.The Doctor of Chiropractic performs specific chiropractic adjustments in order to normalize the functioning of the vertebrae to avoid interference with the nervous system.(hyperexcitement of a nerve causing abnormal function).
The adjustments are very brief, very specific manual applications of great effectiveness that require a high level of skill that only a Licensed Chiropractor (7 years of university) should perform to correct a vertebral subluxation.
It has nothing to do with the manual movements performed on the skin or muscles known as massages or manipulations.
Massage Therapy:
Massages are techniques for muscle relaxation. Massage therapy does not require university-level training. Attendance at a couple of weekend seminars is sufficient to use the title of “massage therapist”.
In the end, they only have in common part of their name the word “Chiro” from the Greek for Hands.
The Spanish Association of Chiropractors regulates and lists the Licensed Chiropractors.
