Physical therapist vs chiropractor
Physical therapists and chiropractors both treat musculoskeletal pain, but they use different approaches. PTs focus on exercise-based rehabilitation and restoring function through movement. Chiropractors primarily use spinal adjustments and manual manipulation. Understanding these differences helps you choose the right provider for your specific condition.
