Chiropractor Gaithersburg MD
Thank you for visiting the website of Palmer Chiropractic Clinic - Gaithersburg located at 6 Montgomery Village Ave Suite #301 in Gaithersburg, MD. We understand how important it is to choose a Gaithersburg MD chiropractor that is right for you. It is our belief that educating our patients is a very important part of the success we see in our office.
Most people think that a chiropractor pops, cracks or snaps back pain away, but there is so much more to the profession. In 1895 the first chiropractic adjustment was delivered to a man who had lost the ability to hear in one of his ears. Following an adjustment to his spine, the man explained that his hearing had been restored. While this is not the most common result of chiropractic care it is an example of one of the many conditions chiropractic care has helped over the last century.

Science
Chiropractic Scientifically Explained
A concise scientific explanation of chiropractic is that adjustments directly affect musculoskeletal structures by reducing pain and increasing joint motion.
Musculoskeletal structures include ligaments, muscles, joints, joint capsules, and surrounding myofascial tissues. Aside from this direct benefit, the autonomic nervous system is indirectly affected by the downregulation of the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight system), and promotion of the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and repair system).
This is done through the effect that chiropractic adjustments have on joint capsules and the body's proprioception mechanism (sense of where one is in space), through the mechanoreceptors (provide information regarding mechanical changes within the body), in the joints and periarticular tissues (tissue surrounding the joint).
