In simplest terms, a subluxation a.k.a. Vertebral Subluxation) is when one or more of the bones of your spine (vertebrae) move out of position and create pressure on, or irritate spinal nerves. Spinal nerves are the nerves that come out from between each of the bones in your spine. This pressure or irritation on the nerves then causes those nerves to malfunction and interfere with the signals traveling over those nerves. How does this affect you? Your nervous system controls and coordinates all the functions of your body.
This is a representation of one type of subluxation. A subluxation, as defined by the Association of Chiropractic Colleges is: "A subluxation is a complex of functional and/or structural and/or pathological articular changes that compromise neural integrity and may influence organ system function and general health."
Below are some of the foremost experts in chiropractic who have taken the time to answer some of the more common questions. Author: Dr. Jay Handt Description: In this video, Dr Handt explains the basic difference between chiropractic and medicine. He explains the fundamentally unique approach to health and wellness that chiropractic represents as compared with the condition treatment approach of medical care.
Chiropractors do not claim to treat infectious diseases. What chiropractic does is allow your body to function free of nerve system interference and closer to your full potential. Understanding the spread of infectious disease and how best to defend yourself can lessen the fear as well as your chances of being impacted by infectious pathogens.

I've been coming to this office for over a year now. I find the Dr nice and professional. I feel 100 times better than one year ago and I thank him for that! My only complaint is the hours. The Dr consistently shows up 45 min to an hour late to work. People sit in the waiting room upset and talk about this and it has gone on for the entire year that I've been going here. Friday am hours are 10:30 a 11:45. Dr showed up at 11:15.
How can you be 45 min late to a job that starts at 10:30 in the morning and only open for an hour and 15 min? Afternoon hours are the same. Sometimes over an hour late because he is still seeing patients at the other office while we wait patiently in South Bend. We are here on time waiting while he is seeing patients that can't show up in time. Very frustrating!
I write this review only because people are upset and talk to each other as we wait. If you limit the hours to the small timeframe, please be there for us on time as we patiently wait for care.

I am thankful for Dr. Schiffman and his wife and the professional manner in which they care for their patients. Their practice noticeably takes into consideration the healing of the whole health of their patients. They listen carefully to us and consider the immediate need then follow it with a specific plan of care! Thank you much!
