Chiropractic is an evidence-based, non-invasive, hands-on healthcare discipline. Chiropractic focuses on the musculoskeletal system, which is made up of the bones, muscles, tendons, and joints that provide form, support, and stability to the body. Chiropractors mainly use their hands to manipulate joints, but other instruments may be used if the patient prefers it or if it is necessary. Chiropractic can provide diagnosis, treatment, and preventive care for disorders related to the spine, pelvis, nervous system, and joints.

Massage therapy consists primarily of hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body, specifically, the muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints for the purpose of optimizing health. It has a therapeutic effect on the body and optimizes health and well-being by acting on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems. Registered Massage Therapists use their knowledge of anatomy and physiology to combine massage techniques with exercise and other therapies to treat their clients.
