The Differences of Chiropractic & Allopathic Healthcare

When it comes to making the proper health care decision nowadays, allopathic medicine and holistic medicine are two different forms of treatment that are widely considered by the general population. Finding the best, most appropriate healthcare option for any type of complication is essential, but many often question the expertise of these varying practitioners. While allopathic and holistic approaches can differ greatly from the other, both systems are frequently used to satisfy the main concerns involving the effectiveness and speed of eliminating painful symptoms. The two offer different benefits and approaches for treating the numerous injuries and conditions people are affected by.

Allopathic medicine refers to the system of medical practice which focuses on the use of pharmacologically active agents or physical interventions, such as the use of drugs or surgery, to treat and eliminate symptoms of injury, pathophysiologic processes of disease and conditions. Holistic medicine refers to the system of healthcare that emphasizes on naturally, treating the whole person to achieve optimal health and wellness, such as chiropractic treatment, rather than solely treating the single injury, condition and their symptoms.

Although many people commonly turn to more conventional, allopathic treatments for relief of their symptoms, holistic approaches, particularly chiropractic treatment, have progressively become more popular as an alternative, treatment option.

Dr. Alex Jimenez D.C.,C.C.S.T’s insight:

After an individual develops symptoms due to direct trauma from an injury or an underlying condition, the first course of action should be to receive a proper diagnosis to determine the source of their pain and discomfort and follow up with the appropriate treatment option. Just as there are a wide variety of injuries and conditions, several medical approaches are available to provide comfort and relief to the affected individual.
