PT’s they stretch and strengthen muscles but cannot remove nerve interference through specific chiropractic spinal adjustments .DO’s are similar to MD’s and they can do manipulations but not specific chiropractic spinal adjustments designed for for joint mobilization and pain reduction NOT correction of nerve interference. Less than 1% of DO’s manipulate. Doctors of Chiropractic administer specific chiropractic spinal adjustments to remove nerve interference which improves function and health.
