What is Chiropractic?
Chiropractic care/manipulation is the art and science of being able to discover and correct areas of the spine that are not functioning properly. By correcting these areas of misalignment, fixation or inflammation, chiropractors can improve nerve flow throughout the body. If you have interference in your nervous system, you will not be able to heal yourself as well as you’re designed to. Our objective is to remove that interference.
Everything in the body, including muscles, sensations and organ/gland function, is controlled by the nervous system. Chiropractic care focuses on helping to keep the nervous system healthy, which results in helping the body to be healthier.
The techniques we use can also relieve joint dysfunction outside of the spine in areas such as the shoulders, knees, elbows or wrists. This can help reduce pain and increase flexibility – and get you back to exercise, work and living life to your fullest potential!
Why You Should Try Chiropractic Care
If you have pain and want to avoid the side effects and complications of drugs and surgery, chiropractic is a natural and effective way to treat your pain - anything from headaches to neck and back pain to pinched nerves to fibromyalgia.
If you've experienced mental, physical and chemical stress in your life, you might be burdening your nervous system causing pain and even poor health. These stressors include:
- previous injuries and traumas
- prolonged sitting at a computer
- chronic mental stress from work or a relationship
- all of the chemicals in our processed foods
How Chiropractic Helps
Chiropractic helps to remove interference and stress off of the nervous system using a hands-on approach to keep the spine moving and functioning properly.
Form and function go hand and hand. Misalignments of the spine, fixations within the moving pieces of the spine, inflammation around the discs or nerves, arthritic changes and disc bulges or herniations can have a negative effect on the nerve function causing pain, weakness, numbness or tingling or even poor health.
Using chiropractic to improve nerve function can help to eliminate the symptoms that result from nerve irritation.
So, if you are looking for a safe, natural and cost-effective treatment for pain with high levels of patient satisfaction and a record of great outcomes for the patient! Try chiropractic today.
